The Centre for Disease Control in the United States has advised men to get rid of facial air to reduce risk of contacting the deadly Coronavirus.
The organization warned that facial hair could interfere with face masks and respirators, which are being used around the world in an effort to combat the global spread of the disease a.k.a 2019-nCoV.
The CDC has come up with an infographic, which displays assorted styles of beards and showing the ones that are compatible with masks and respirators.

Health officials said some types of facial hair can keep the exhalation valve from working properly according to CNN News.
Styles such as side-whiskers, handlebar mustaches, and several others are okay, but styles such as mutton chops and full beards are not recommended. Goatees and villain mustache are acceptable but with caution.
Basically, facial hair should not leave the boundaries of the mask or respirator.
