anyone have any info on this type of mask? I’m a little worried about the bottom right pic of air coming out. Doesn’t that defeat purpose of wearing a mask?
Sorry if this is wrong place for my post. I wasn’t sure if is appropriate here or if I should start a new thread.
Edit: pic didn’t show up. But it’s one of the ones with a circle vent
That could be several masks. One of the masks is sounds like is Vogmask, which, for a while, were getting pretty popular with, say, folks with cystic fibrosis or other things requiring organ transplant. I think the concern here is that air can come out of the vent. A pretty goodly amount. So CF clinics and such are disallowing them and recommending a surgical mask. In these days of shortage of actual PPE, a cloth mask without a vent is more appropriate.
I use a mask from Breathe Healthy.
