In situation, new Coronavirus acute respiratory infection hasn’t been weak, face mask is still one of the most effective preventive measures. On the market there are many kinds of masks sold with much price and different uses but what face mask supporting prevention nCOv effectively.

 

What face mask type should consumers choose: N95, N99 (Made in: USA, Japan); KF94, KF99 (Made in: Korea) or 3-4 layer medical mask is made in local as Vietnam.

  • The unpredictable answer is these masks have the same effect on preventing nCOv.

There have opposed to opinions which face mask type is the most effectively,  let's find out with CityHouse to decide the most objective assessment.

  • N95, N99 masks are certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to be able to filter dust particles of microscopic size up to 0.3 μm.

 

  • Masks KF80, KF94, KF99 also adhere strictly to being in the certified European Standard ranking capable of filtering microscopic particulate matter from 0.3 - 0.5 μm.

 

The figures shown on the name are 80% or 99% fine dust filter. Fine dust is a direct cause serious respiratory problems, it can be fatal. 0.3μm is equivalent to the size of viruses and bacteria. These are tiny particles that the naked eye can't see, often referred to as PM2.5 ultrafine dust. NCOv is only about 100 μm, the mask can't prevent the virus so small. But the problem is nCOv doesn’t survive in an air environment, special temperatures above 27 degrees Celsius like HCM City, we just need a face mask that can prevent tiny saliva from patients (containing many viruses) can prevent infection.
