[Ryan, Mandy]

HI Serina
As of the 22nd July 2020 from the Department of Health and Human Services in Victoria the advice is:

‘Infants and children under the age of 12 are not required to wear a face covering. Due to risk of choking it is not safe to use a mask on child under two years of age.’

Hi All,
Can anyone please advise what the minimal age of children is to wear surgical masks? If you have any guideline to be shared? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
