The best almost-but-not-quite-N95 you can get now
Apparently these thin foldable "N95" masks are all we can hope to find these days. In a small bit of research I read that even if a mask filters at least 95% of particles, if it does not have two elastic bands that fit around the head it cannot be genuinely certified N95. So maybe get one of those mask bands for the back of the head to put the loops on, to tighten it up. I plan to stick a foam strip on the inside of these under the bendy nose piece for a more airtight fit. The ear loops have not popped off. The ear loops look well bonded to the masks. There are no holes in these. What look like holes are where the masks are pressed and melted together. Mine came as 5 in a factory-sealed package. Am I happy about the price each? Nope, not really. But the quality isn't bad.
