Best Face Mask for Coronavirus - The Definition Guide
Before you buy the face mask for coronavirus, you may ask what kind of face mask for coronavirus?
My answer is N95 face mask is the best.
But as you know, the N95 face mask is expensive and only can use for 4 hours. Unless you need to contact the infected directly, there is no necessity to wear an N95 face mask. And if you wear an N95 mask for a long time, it may damage the lungs or cause suffocation.
So, if you are in public place or don't contact infected directly, Surgical Face Mask is enough. But if you need to contact infected, wear an N95, please.
