Why did female medical staff cut their hair short during the epidemic?

During the epidemic, medical staff from all over the country rushed to Wuhan for support, and female medical staff in some areas cut their long hair short before leaving, which aroused widespread concern in society.

Reasons for cutting your hair short:

When the reporter interviewed these female medical staff with short hair, they said that no girl would shave her head for no reason, all for work. It is clearly stated that the reason for cutting short hair is that the mode of transmission in COVID-19 is generally through respiratory droplets and contact, so it is necessary for medical staff to wear protective clothing and protective caps to treat patients during the epidemic. If the hair is too long, it will be inconvenient to break it out and increase the chance of infection, so cut it short. For example, Wu Feng of Southern Hospital Medical Support Team, a female doctor, had her waist-length hair cut for 20 years before coming to Wuhan. On the evening of February 8, 2020, she found that wearing protective clothing was still too tight with short hair. So, on February 9, 2020, she simply shaved her head.

There are also some female medical staff who cut their hair short for the convenience of cleaning. During the epidemic, there were tens of thousands of patients in Wuhan, but the number of doctors was relatively small, so doctors often went back to the dormitory and didn't have much time to clean their hair and tidy up their equipment. They cut their long hair short to reduce the time to dry it.

Some of the medical staff in Bozhou City, Anhui Province have written such a diary? In order to reduce possible pollution hazards, everyone consciously queued for haircuts. Our respectable director shaved all his hair directly, and the bald director Zhuang is also very handsome. Lu Zheng, who has always cherished her hair, also cut off her sideburns and hair behind her ears. ?

In the final analysis, when female medical staff cut their hair, they are accompanied by the determination to overcome the epidemic and the sense of mission to save lives. It is also with the help of these medical staff that we have survived the epidemic safely.
