Shemaghs is a clothing item in DayZ. It can be worn either as a headwear, or wrapped around the survivor's neck by placing it int the face clothing slot. Shemaghs can be used as part of crafting of a splint in place of rags, bandages, or duct tape. They can also be used to bandage a bleeding wound, though they should be disinfected first to prevent a Wound Infection. Non-disinfected Shemagh has a 15% chance of causing an infection. Disinfected item will lose its disinfected status when its condition drops due to received damage.
