While we feel confident with our design, we make no safety claims. A snug fit is important. Fitted properly the front fabric of the mask will move in and out as you breath and it will not fog up your glasses.
Wearing ANY mask decreases the risk of exposure by 77%. If you add a layer of 100% polypropylene which we do, that risk can be substancially decreased. The polypropylene can not be penentrated by water, bacteria or particles. Bruce Spiess, MD, a professor of anesthesiology in the UF College of Medicine made the calculation that 100% polypropylene was 4% more effective than N95's at blocking particulate matter.
