Product Description

3M Particulate Respirator 8612F Box of 2 masks per box (2 boxes) For Use by the General Public in Public Health Medical Emergencies. These are the particulate respirators cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use by the general public in case of a public health medical emergency, such as an influenza pandemic, to help reduce wearer exposures to airborne germs. Surgical facemasks are not designed to prevent the wearer from inhaling particles.They are not necessarily designed to seal to the face, so there is the potential for germs in the air to leak around the edges. Even those masks that appear similar to NIOSH-approved respirators have not been designed to protect the wearer from airborne hazards; therefore they should not be considered an equivalent substitute to government approved respirators. Although some masks may look similar, unless the respirator is marked with the word “NIOSH” and a filtration rating such as N95, it should not be assumed to help reduce exposure to airborne particles, including those containing germs.

This review is from: 3M Particulate Respirator 8612F FLU MASK N95 FDA Approved, 2-Count (Pack of 2) (Health and Beauty)

The 3M 8612F N95 Respirator Mask is an excellent choice to protect against H1N1 (Swine Flu). Buying them from the Vendor on Amazon has them overpriced, if not gauging. 2 boxes with 2 in a box for $45 plus shipping is not very many when one considers as soon as the mask is taken off it becomes contaminated and needs to be replaced with a new one. 1 bx of 20 or more would be a better choice at probably a better price.
