Everyone who has been blessed by the flu will have an unbearable experience: headache, fever, fatigue, sore throat, rhinitis, cough, etc. What is even more frightening is that flu is highly infectious and reproductive, such as covid-19.

They will be transmitted to people who have been in close contact through droplets, mouth, nose, eyes and other channels.

Can KIEYYUEL protective masks prevent the flu?

Everyone should know that everything has weaknesses. The weakness of influenza virus is its "adsorption". If it is exposed to the air, it is difficult to survive, but it can adsorb on aerosol particles larger than itself. According to the GB19083-2020 mask technical requirements, the diameter of the particles that the mask can pass is ≦0.075μm±0.02. The diameter of aerosol particles is 0.001-100μm (1μm=1000nm). The vast majority of aerosol particles are ≧0.1μm. Therefore, KIEYYUEL and INTECH protective masks can filter out more than 95% of the virus.
