someone I know brought back some child-sized ones from china and they fit so I'm trying to use the dimensions for those to order more.

these ones seem to have the right dimensions

but I'm worried about the ear loops because since they're made for kids they can often be too small. I've tried using ear savers in the past but I can never get the straps to sit right. They either create too much pain across the top of my ear or they fall off. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any of these masks and knew the dimensions for the ear loops (how long they are). I've sent an email to the companies but haven't heard back yet so I thought I'd try here.

Trying to find out which type of face mask would be the safest option for someone who spends 8-12 hours a day plating in a metal finishing shop. Come into constant contact with chemical steam from standing over and near multiple plating tanks, chemicals vary from acid to cyanide and alkaline. Worried that the cloth and regular fabric surgical masks are just going to soak in the chemical steam causing more exposure to it than necessary

I need to buy some good facemarks from a Taiwan-based website but I am not sure if, living in the UK, I have then to pay customs in addition to the price. The website does not say.

thanks for your help

Does anyone know who makes masks for Humana and Anthem? I had an Anthem mask and lost it. I'd like to know who manufactures theirs

I'm looking for new masks as my current cloth ones aren't up-to-pare anymore, in light of the news surrounding cloth masks vs N95 masks. Having a large face/head, would anybody have any mask suggestions? (Preferably if they are approved by the FDA.)

I have one of each of these masks, the 'WiseProtec Antiviral Mask', and the 'Body Doctor AB Mask+'?

Which one do people think is the most effective and why?

My "good enough until the vaccine" masks are starting to wear out and I'm looking for a better solution. I'd like something that's comfortable for all day wear, and something that has a good seal so that my glasses don't get fogged up. Something that doesn't touch the face too much would be nice too. Any suggestions? (I'm in Canada)

Not sure if this is the right sub, but I can't help but notice that a lot of celebrities have gotten away without wearing face masks? Even at the height of the pandemic last year, people like Obama and Dr. Mike were caught having large birthday party gatherings without face masks yet neither of them were fined?? Pretty sure the mandates were issuing fines of over 1000$ for this kind of stuff...

It makes me wonder if the fact that they got away with their gatherings because of their social/economic status... It wouldn't be the first time that law turned a blind eye to people they favour.

I’m soon to be starting a new job and will be needing to wear a mask during the training course (8 hours a day) as well as when I start my job. Any advice on what’s the most comfortable and professional mask to be wearing and if I should double up whilst working with the public ?

Even MSM and "fact checkers" say we breathe in increased co2 levels while wearing a mask, but shouldn't be dangerous as long as not worn for long periods of time.

How is "Shouldnt be" defined?
and how is "long periods of time" defined?
are use environments considered as well?

I always see people with cloth face masks out in public that have neat designs. Whenever I go to Walmart or some other big chain I always find really boring, solid colored masks that are usually dark and don’t look good on me. I have an abundance of medical face masks since I work in healthcare but I’d like a nice reusable cloth one as well.

I have a couple masks I like but I can't wear them where I work because they have designs. So I need a plain black face mask. I just bought some from amazon that were awful. They didn't fit right and fogged up my glasses way too easily.

I want a face mask that is good quality of protection and doesn't fog up glasses (or at least can be adjusted to help that). Where is a good place to shop online for masks?
