TRIPLE-LAYERED PROTECTIVE BANDANA PRINT FACE MASK

Description:
Triple-layered protective cotton face mask with PM2.5 filter featuring bandana paisley printed design. Constructed with the highest quality hand/machine-washable cotton twill, fully adjustable elastic ear loop straps and breathable inner-lining. Designed and built intelligently with high grade technical specifications, this protective cloth face mask is made of three layers of cotton and easily adapts to different sizes with adjustable ear loops and integrated metal nose piece to ensure a snug fit. Each mask includes a replacement five-layer PM2.5 filter featuring 2 layers of filter fabric, 2 layers of non-woven fabric and 1 layer of activated carbon fabric. Protective particle-resistant outer layer with polyester fiber middle layer for particle filtration. Ultra-soft & breathable combed-cotton inner layer.

PM2.5 filters are made from the same advanced materials used for respirators like the N95 and KN95. lab tests show a properly fitted PM2.5 filtered mask can reduce airborne particulates by as much as 90%.

Remember, no mask is 100% effective at protecting from viral transmission. The most effective thing you can do to stay healthy is wash your hands and practice appropriate social distancing.

Each mask purchase includes a filter inside mask + one extra PM2.5 replacement filter. You can purchase an additional 10-Pack filter set here.

About Rescue Org. Initiative:
As the world struggles to deal with the fallout of the pandemic across its richest nations, the needs of the most vulnerable must not be neglected or forgotten. This pandemic is a powerful reminder of the world’s inequalities, and how we are only as strong as our weakest health system.⁠

Displaced and vulnerable families are often confined to overcrowded camps or cities where a disease like this can spread rapidly through the close-knit population. The sad truth is: the advice given to protect ourselves from the virus—wash your hands with soap and clean water, visit a health clinic if symptomatic, and self isolate or use social distancing—is not always possible for these families to follow when living in cramped spaces. ⁠⠀

Meanwhile, war and armed conflict devastate countries and their health care systems. In Yemen, for instance, more than half the country’s health facilities are closed. In countries experiencing active conflict like Yemen, Syria, eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, northeast Nigeria and Burkina Faso, it will be much more difficult to mitigate the spread of pandemic, putting the lives of thousands of civilians at increased risk. ⁠

This Masks Usefulness with Combatting COVID-19:
The CDC officially recommends cloth masks in public for everyone. The debate about whether the public should wear masks came after increasing evidence that infected people without symptoms can spread the coronavirus. Medical masks should still be reserved for health-care workers.
