Is it permissible for a person in ihram to wear a medical mask as a precaution against disease?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a person in ihram to wear a medical mask as a precaution against disease?

Answer:
Yes, or something like that. There is nothing wrong with what is on the face, as it does not cover the head. However, covering the mouth is not a problem. Yes.
