FACE MASKS
KN95 masks
Masks of type KN95 in Chinese standards offers the most recommended protection against corona viruses. How long does a KN95 mask last? The KN95 disposable masks (also called "duckbill" masks) are effective for 8 hours. They need to be perfectly positioned around the nose and cover the chin so that all of the incoming air is filtered, which is not always easy Important: Every mask that is worn must be disposed of afterwards, even if it has been worn for less than 8 hours. Never replace a disposable mask that has already been used! |
Surgical masks
Are surgical masks effective against the coronavirus? Surgical masks (or "3-layer masks") are often the subject of conflicting recommendations for the prevention of the coronavirus. What is certain is that a surgical mask that filters in both directions filters the air when exhaling and not when inhaled. Lifetime of a surgical mask Surgical masks can be worn for a maximum of 3 hours in a row. They are neither washable nor reusable, and like FFP2 masks, all surgical masks must be disposed of after wearing, even if they have been worn for less than 3 hours. |
