What your family needs during this time is:
- Accurate information
- A trusted Canadian supplier
- A reliable, top quality mask
Just the facts
There is strengthening evidence that three-ply surgical masks are far more protective in preventing infection than reusable ones. In a recent study, scientists looked at the most and least effective masks to use their recommendations were clear.The experiments showed that “ bandanas, handkerchiefs, fleece balaclavas) and neck gaiters offered very little protection, while N95 respirators, surgical masks performed better.”
What to look for in the RIGHT mask?
- Breathability – the mask should be easy to breathe in
- Comfort and scent – the mask should be soft to the touch and have no scent
- Fit – the mask should have no gaps around your nose, mouth, and chin
- Flame resistant – the middle layer should not catch fire if lit
