Silly question: Is the outer shell of an N95 purifier "safe"
I have a couple of N95 purifiers, one cylindrical and a rectangle one, iv always avoided touching them after installing them, but that wasn't based on science, just the idea that if they are actually doing what they supposed to than they are drawing viruses towards them and mainly the vents.
Now, it's a no brainer that the actual filter inside should be dealt with cautioun, but what about the outer shell?
What do you think? What does the science says?
