Well friggin DUH.
Isn’t much they produce that works “as designed”.
Like it really matters? They were never designed to do what their supposed benefit of protecting others when the sick person wearing the mask is coughing, singing or talking loudly. When worn by non-symptomatic well people they do nothing other than lower the O2 levels in the person wearing the mask.
The N-95 masks are not supposed to be used anyway. They only protect the person wearing them . They don’t protect others because when you exhale it is not filtered.
Painters use N95 masks — not for their own safety, but to protect the paint.
There’s actually a lot they produce that works as designed. It’s just not the cheap stuff - if you are willing to pay them more for quality, they’ll build it.
Keep in mind that China makes the majority of hard drives these days. And those don’t die any sooner than the immediate prior generations that were made in Japan, Korea, the US, etc., etc.
And the crew of Sea Isle City and Sungari would strongly disagree with you over whether Chinese weapons work.
Er, no. Painters don’t use N95, they use P95 or P100. N95 does not protect against paint vapors or protect the paint from the user.
Not all N95 masks have the exhale valve. Years ago I went to the N95 masks with the exhale valve because I was doing some rigorous sanding grinding on fiberglass
How’s your Krebs cycle CHYna? #1 IN DEPOPULATION EUGENICS for many years in a row.
Chinese Eugenics...READ Geoffrey Miller at the edge.org...self-described “Evolutionary Psychologist”. HOW CLEVER these PSYCHOPATHS, eh?
(for some reason, I can’t get to the link...what’s habbening, Q?)
; )
That only applies if the mask has an exhale valve. Many N-95 variants don’t have an exhale valve.
Exhale valves is the only way to get rid of most of the CO2 buildup. And on warm to hot days, it becomes necessary for that level of filtration to force air back through.
My wife and I have P100 masks, and I can’t fathom ever not having an exhale valve to bypass the filter. Using that in a 130 degree hot attic space doing work is terrible (I’ve done it).
Half of mine break right out of the package.
You would do better seeking out P95 masks and filtration if not P100. Most of the masses have no idea what those are and you stand a better chance of finding them. And most of the P95 stuff is made in North America.
Yawn. People never learn. 85% of the population are complete morons who are incapable of rational thought.
Mind has two phony exhale valves with a piece of see- through fabric instead of a rubber flapper. I just wear it for appearence sake to keep the Karens off my back.
The "P" means it can be used in the presence of oils. Neither protects against vapors, they are not intended to.
True, but there are P100 organic vapor cartridges out there and I don’t recall there being any N95 ones.
From the country that brought us covid....what a shocker.
