Be careful if you or someone wearing a N-95 mask with a respiratory valve.

The government says that it does not prevent corona virus

The Ministry of Health cautioned all states that the N-95 masks with respiratory valves do not help to control the corona virus.

"Evidence says that when you wear a mask with valves, you are safe yourself, But you exhale and if you are infected, then you can infect others." , said

Rajesh Bhushan, OSD,Health Ministry 

The N-95 mask consists of 5 layers of cloth which prevents the smallest particles in the air from entering the body through the breath.

But these layers do not cause difficulty in breathing, so some N-95 masks have respiratory valves.So that oxygen supply remains and carbon dioxide is released.

But according to new information if a person is corona infected.So through the valve in the mask, the virus can get into the environment which can infect people around it.

Government's order does not mean that you stop wearing mask.
