Reduce your risk of coronavirus infection (WHO);口罩的神話與希望?High-end washable face masks in great demand


口罩的神話 (希望此文的"猜測"是對的,請參考就好)

(美國幾年前才禁止廠商在肥皂、洗乳劑等標上"殺菌"......真正試驗之後,發現市面上千百種殺菌產品,幾乎都是"胡說"。)
近日想起,昔日Sars時,我戴口罩到"明基"演講、上課。(當時台灣蘋果剛出刊,頭版整頁好像全台北都中彩,震撼......)

現在據說其近親從某處來訪。我們也許該"長"些微之"智":說不定,一般口罩也是"神話" (如何處置它是好,因用過的口罩可能成細菌溫床.....)。
一般而言,最重要的是勤洗手!!!!
請看得懂英文的人去WHO讀防疫事項,一般人(除非去醫院、密閉空間等;口罩多給病患用......,筆者HC補充)都找不到"口罩"字樣。倒是注意蛋、肉等要煮熟。
一般口罩,因為缺防毒面具般的過濾器,所以效用和堪用期限,都很短/小,所以請不要以為戴口罩可享長效保護、預防。

High-end washable face masks in great demand

A maker of face masks in central Japan is boosting its production of high-end masks amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The mesh product maker Clever in Aichi Prefecture has been flooded with orders for the face masks since late last week.
The maker says the eight-layer masks it has been making for the last seven years filter out viruses, including the new coronavirus, and the tiny airborne pollutants known as PM 2.5. They also have a deodorizing effect.
The masks sell for more than 120 dollars, but the company says they remain effective even after being washed as many as 100 times.
It says it has increased output fivefold, but 50 masks a day is the maximum production rate, as they are made completely by hand.
Customers currently have to wait one to two weeks. The maker says its clients include people in Wuhan.
President Eri Ishibashi says she was surprised at the surge in orders. She says she hopes to deliver the masks to their worried customers as soon as possible.
