These the ones the experts say do nothing for Omicron?
Yeah these aren’t K95.
How about a cloth mask with an n95 filter insert?
This is my opinion only, but I would say a cloth mask with N95 insert would probably better than a plain cloth mask, but unlikely to be as good as an actual P2/N95 respirator since these are designed to have a much better fit on the face.
However, as to whether a filtered cloth mask would be better than a surgical mask…bit of a toss up there. If I had to take a punt I would probably lean yes, but I'd really have no idea!
They are better than nothing- the below is from an occupational and environmental health website
With a cloth face covering (Cloth FC)…
… has 75% inward leakage and outward leakage.With a surgical mask…( the masks in this post)
… has 50% inward leakage and outward leakageWith an N95 filtering facepiece respirator (FFR)…
…has 1-10% inward leakage and outward leakage.source https://www.acgih.org/covid-19-fact-sheet-worker-resp/
Fitted properly it's still better than nothing. You can also wear 2 at once for some potential additional protection (I've been doing that lately in Sydney and it's defo a lot harder to breathe so I assume that means more layers of filtration, ymmv).
My go to are the Maxima Lv2 @ HealthcareXpress for $11, free shipping if u buy 2 and comes pretty much 1-2 days after. Not sure where they are made but are great quality.
Also have these, people have commented on how mine seem better than theirs.
Can't really tell the difference but don't have CovidThis is a deal.. thanks for that, ordered 2.
They are all made in China, but IMHO better quality than most of made in au options.
My go to as well for surgical masks. They're rated as L2 as well.
Thanks grabbed 3 packs
Given this how cheap healthcarexpress is and its been this way for some months now, the Med-Con deal is not really a bargain.
Any pointers for N95 or KN95 ?
Bunnings have/had a 5 pack of kn95 masks for $2. Some stores still have stock.
They also have MCP Health brand (made in Australia)
box of 50 standard level 2 $18.15 - https://www.matrixdental.com.au/product/MCPFMSL2EL/
box of 50 sensitive skin level 2 $19.80 - https://www.matrixdental.com.au/product/MCPFMSSL2EL/
+$12 shipping.Definitely worth paying that little extra to support an essential Australian manufacturer.
These kind of masks work great when the person with the virus is wearing it (and yourself). If you are the minority wearing a mask only a kn95 is going to significantly help.
Freight seems to be $12.
Any one rate these ones over cheaper options ?
