Mask buying tips:
1. Get an efficient mask. Basic face masks are rated by efficiency. Get at least N95 (95% efficiency). N100 (99%+ efficiency) is the best but more expensive. Masks with HEPA filters are also 99%+ efficient. Masks are also rated by the size of particle they exclude. Look for masks that exclude all particles over 1 micron; those that exclude particles over .3 microns are even better.
2. Get a mask that fits. Whatever style of protection you choose, make sure it fits. In face masks, look for sizes such as "medium" (fits most adults), "juvenile" or "child" or "small," and "large." Some masks are made of bendable or stretchy materials that help with fit. Some masks also have adjustable fitting features such as adjustable nose clips or nose bridge, adjustable ties, etc.
3. Get a comfortable mask. A mask that fits will be more comfortable and safe than one that does not. Also, some masks are designed especially for wear in hot weather. Others have a special valve that makes breathing out easier. Some masks contain latex or rubber, to which some people are allergic. Look for a mask to which you are not allergic.
3. Other more extreme options: Whole head and whole body suits, masks. and shields with positive pressure from compressed air are even safer but much more expensive and less convenient to wear.
