N95 Respiratory Face Mask – Swine Flu Prevention
N95 Respiratory Face Mask
It is today’s must to protect yourself from H1N1 swine flu virus, so here’s a tip for prevention. Take the N95 flu and face mask (3M brand | North Brand | Kimberly Clark). There are also face mask types good for travelers. Some medical studies show that ordinary face mask won’t protect healthcare workers from cold and flu virus so it would be best to use the N95 respiratory or surgical face mask against H1N1 flu virus.
There are so many design that you can find today in the market but here is one that fits everything you might need – the N95 respiratory mask with exhalation valve and double straps. This specific model is duly approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
If you are asking me how much this protective gear costs, at least this type would be $2.99 by retail in some stores while a wholesale would range from $1.90 – $2.45 depending on the store you buy it from. The N95 face mask is also recommended for use against TB and other pathogens that are airborne by nature.

Swine flu is very dangerous disease. Its almost fatal. Like its is said, “Prevention Is Better Than Cure”, one should cover face with mask to protect from swine flu virus. The N-95 masks are popular. It is basically a surface for entrapment of the virus from outside, so one should wash the mask on a regular basis followed by washing one’s hands and face.
