    • A Facebook post claims people are checking into ERs due to fungal lung infections caused by wearing masks meant to prevent COVID-19.

    • Regional, statewide and national emergency physician groups say they haven't seen any reports to support this.

    • Health experts say there’s no evidence that wearing standard masks, such as surgical masks or ones made of fabric, is harmful to the general public.

    • Experts recommend wearing face coverings to slow the coronavirus.

    • They also say it’s important to wash your hands and to wash reusable masks regularly.
