Ohio Health Department changes recommendation regarding masks against the flu

Recommendation is changing for health professionals who work with flu patients

WKSU's statehouse correspondent Jo Ingles reports
The Ohio Health Department is changing a recommendation it's been making for health professionals who deal with flu infected patients. In the past, it's been recommended that health professionals use a special kind of mask that contains a respirator inside. But Kristopher Weiss says those masks are in short supply so the department is changing its recommendation.
