You can now buy KN95 masks online, but be certain to buy from a manufacturer approved by the FDA. I’ve included links to the approved list. https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19-emergency-use-authorizations-medical-devices/personal-protective-equipment-euas Scroll down to Appendix A. https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/whats-the-difference-between-n95-and-kn95-masks/ #mask #n95 #kn95
