Earlier on August 13 last year, the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council of China released the new version of the Mask Wearing Guidelines for the General Public and Occupational Groups that are at High Risk for COVID-19 Infection, in which it highlighted the importance of wearing highly protective masks in crowded places and other high-risk situations.

What are highly protective masks, after all? Medical masks are.

Medical masks are well-fitting masks made of one or more types of fabrics that can block virus aerosols and virus-containing particles under respiratory airflow. They are personal protective gear that are able to filtrate 95% of non-oily particles and is commonly used to protect the wearer from airborne infectious diseases.

As shown in the Epidemic Prevention Product Manual Zhende released lately, the company has designed three types of surgical masks to provide the desired degrees of protection for different groups of people: duckbill, arch-shaped, and C-shaped.

The duckbill mask is sharply outlined, head-mounted, and well-fitting. The nose pad and large air chamber ensure maximum comfort. Being a foldable mask, it is convenient to carry around and use.  

They are protective and comfortable. They provide a safe, comfortable and convenient choice for healthcare personnel and other professionals working at the frontline of epidemic prevention and control.
