The following is the latest advise on Swine Flu from Moldex Respiratory Protection.
- When in direct contact with infected persons or animals we recommend a FFP3 mask.
- If there is no indication of an infection, wearing a FFP2 mask as a precaution is advisable.
- Medical or hygienic masks cannot be recommended as they offer only minimal protection.
- Respiratory protection can reduce the danger of infection by viruses but not completely prevent it.
- When wearing a mask it is imperative for the efficiency to make sure the mask fits the face properly.
- Biologically active hazards can enter the body by way of skin or eyes so that other measures of protection than wearing a mask might be necessary.
