Quote from primetime2113 :
Love the 1st warning notification on the side of the box

Warning
1. The mask does not eliminate the risk of contracting any disease or infection.

Go ahead let the hate posts begin...
As I saw someone say yesterday, we are months into this thing, and people (such as yourself) STILL don't understand how these masks work. These masks PRIMARILY catch droplets exiting your mouth and stop you from spreading the disease to others.

"but I'm not sick" you say... well I don't know you, and I don't know that, so when you are out in public you wear a mask to protect me and my mom, and my dad, and my kids from you, and because you don't know me, and you don't know if I'm sick, I wear a mask to protect you and yours.

edit - I didn't downvote your post, I'd like people to learn

Stop spreading outdated information. BYD now produces NIOSH certified masks:

You are shameless to spread the false information, you quote from the Fake News.
BYD is fully certified it's N95 masks!

Price is not that good, but at least with Costco we know that somebody getting paid big bucks did their research on the quality of these mask, and if anything we can return them in a few years

It's not the least expensive, but it's made by a "reputable" company that just had their N95 (NOT these single use) masks approved by NIOSH.

You are right.
When the situation is back to normal, hopefully they will remove all the return restrictions.

Does the box of this Face Mask mentioned it meet any standard?


Before Covid-19 when we can buy Surgical Masks from CVS, Target, etc, each box usually mentioned the ASTM standard it meet right outside the box.

https://www.halyardhealth.com/ind...-know.aspx

In the United States, they must respect ASTM standards which have three levels of protection (from low risk of exposure to fluids to high risk of exposure to fluids).

TEST LEVEL 1 BARRIER LEVEL 2 BARRIER LEVEL 3 BARRIER
ASTM F1862(Fluid Resistance) 80 mmHg 120 mmHg 160 mmHg
MIL-M-36954 C: ฮ”P (Breathability) < 4 mm H2O < 5 mm H2O < 5 mm H2O
ASTM F2101: BFE (Filtration 3ฮผm) โ‰ฅ 95% โ‰ฅ 98% โ‰ฅ 98%
ASTM F2299: PFE (Filtration 1ฮผm) โ‰ฅ 95% @ 0.1 micron โ‰ฅ 98% @ 0.1 micron โ‰ฅ 98% @ 0.1 micron
16 CFR Part 1610: Flame Spread (Flammability) Class 1 Class 1 Class 1
Note:
BFE = Bacterial Filtration
PFE = Particulate Filtration


In Europe, they must comply with the European standard EN 14683, which has 3 levels of bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE1, BFE2, Type R).



Hopefully as face mask become more available, people would start posting face mask deal that actually meet the ASTM, Europe, or other standard at reasonable price.

================
Also Droplets from human speech can last in air for more than 8 minutes, study from Penn says
https://www.pnas.org/content/117/22/11875

Speech droplets generated by asymptomatic carriers of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are increasingly considered to be a likely mode of disease transmission. Highly sensitive laser light scattering observations have revealed that loud speech can emit thousands of oral fluid droplets per second. In a closed, stagnant air environment, they disappear from the window of view with time constants in the range of 8 to 14 min, which corresponds to droplet nuclei of ca. 4 ฮผm diameter, or 12- to 21-ฮผm droplets prior to dehydration. These observations confirm that there is a substantial probability that normal speaking causes airborne virus transmission in confined environments.

It is a hazard to accept returns of masks, they will never take it back even after years.
