We recommend to use either our Opti or Maxi filter in you mask to protect yourself against of Sars-Covid-19.
Viruses are extremely small particles but are airborne by traveling on other larger particles, which is how filter masks give protection. However, note that no mask can guarantee full safety and protection agains viruses.
The protection against viruses depends on the particle size of the aerosols containing infectious viruses. The sizes of these virus-containing particles differ from just the naked virus diameter (0,02–0,03 µm) to the sizes of the carrier particles. According to a study of the influenza virus, the virus-containing particles vary largely in size and 5% of the particles where larger than 4 µm, 75.5% was 1–4 µm and 19.5% smaller 1 µm. In another study of FMDV, 65–71% of the virus-containing particles were over 6 µm in diameter, 19–24% was 3 - 6 µm and 10–11% were under 3 µm.
The Opti and Maxi filter is tested and certified for 98% protection against particles down to the size of 0.3µm and because of this, the mask will protect you against virus-containing particles that are larger than 0.3µm.
