Please do your research!  Most masks sold Online are "lightweight."  These are marginal at best at protecting against avian or swine flu influenza.  Some examples of these ineffective lightweight masks are:  Ban Soon #HY8816, Crews, Inc #RPN952, North Safety #7140N95S, #7230N95, and #7240N95, 3M #8515, #8210, #9210 and #1860, and Great American #DDM5.  Do not compromise your family's health and safety by providing them inferior protection!

According to the knowledgebase of PandemicFlu.gov's "Interim Public Health Guidance for the Use of Facemasks and Respirators in Non-Occupational Community Settings during an Influenza Pandemic", facemasks and respirators should be used in combination with other preventive measures, such as hand hygiene and social distancing, to help reduce the risk for influenza infection during a pandemic.

Key facts from PandemicFlu.gov:

·         If used correctly, facemasks and respirators may help to prevent some exposures while in a crowded setting.

·         When individuals are ill with respiratory symptoms (e.g., coughing, sneezing) during an influenza pandemic, they should stay at home except when it is critically necessary to leave (e.g., to obtain medical care). Individuals with a respiratory illness should wear a facemask to contain respiratory secretions (e.g., to cover coughs and sneezes) if they are in the presence of others.

·         Since a facemask worn by a coughing person may reduce the amount of potentially infectious material released into the surrounding area, one strategy for reducing the spread of influenza would be to encourage everyone to wear a facemask while they are together if a group gathering is unavoidable. This might reduce the overall risk to the group by increasing the likelihood that all unanticipated coughs and sneezes would be covered and that respiratory secretions would not be widely spread while people are speaking or breathing.

·         If a gathering is unavoidable, individuals may consider wearing a facemask or respirator to help prevent exposure to respiratory secretions from symptomatic individuals.

·         NIOSH-certified N95 and higher filtering facepieces are made of dense material that is certified to filter out very small particles that can be inhaled. To be most effective, these types of respirators should form a tight seal against the wearer’s face. They also will block both small splashes and large droplets.

·         Both facemasks and respirators may be beneficial in discouraging wearers from inadvertently touching their nose or mouth with unwashed hands, which could help prevent virus transmission and infection.

·         If there is the expectation of close contact with a symptomatic individual, every effort should be made to limit the duration of exposure to the ill individual(s) to as short a period as possible. In such situations, proper use of a well-fitted N95 or higher respirator may be a reasonable choice.

·         Planning assumptions project that there will likely be shortages of respirators during a sustained pandemic. For example, quantities of N95 or higher respirators may have to be prioritized for use by certain healthcare workers whose occupational activities place them at increased risk for infection.
