This 3 layer "surgical" mask is a disposable device that creates a physical barrier that protects the mouth and nose from potential contaminants in the immediate area. The folded 3 layer design of the face mask ensures adequate protection, comfort and ease of breathing.
This face mask can be used as an effective barrier against droplets containing the COVID-19 virus from entering your body through your mouth and lungs. The new coronavirus is a respiratory virus which spreads primarily through droplets generated when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or through droplets of saliva from the breath of infected people. These are projected into the air at up to 6 feet away, and enter the body through the mouth, nose and eyes primarily.
While self-isolation, and following all precautions at home is the best measure against exposure to the virus, this is not always practical and at some point everyone needs to venture out, and becomes at risk of being exposed.
When used properly and in conjunction with careful sanitisation, and precautionary measures, these protective face masks provide and additional layer of defense against the COVID-19 virus and should be worn at all times when coming into close contact with people.
