Under-12 pupils can wear face shield instead of mask - Ismail Sabri

Children aged 12 years and below are allowed to wear face shields instead of face masks when attending school, said Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

He said this was decided at the Special Meeting of Ministers on the Movement Control Order (MCO) today and was agreed to by the Health Ministry (MOH).

However, the pupils are encouraged to wear both the face shield and face mask, he told a press conference on the Recovery MCO (RMCO) at Parliament building here today.
