@FineWine may I ask some advice from a professional? When I am taking off my reusable masks I have been placing them in a zip lock bag and washing them separately in hot water and soap. If I use a disposable mask I have been placing them in a ziplock bag and when I get home I empty them into newspaper and place in the trash bin along with the ziplock bags, Is this a safe procedure for myself and the waste collectors or should I be doing things differently? 

Thanks MikeB4 for this. I have added two new paragraphs to my above article.

You have basically been doing the correct stuff. With the disposable masks, seal them in a plastic bag and throw into general rubbish (at this stage).
