  1. The Role of N95 Masks in Preventing the Transmission of Corona virus The use of N95 masks and respirators as a prevention tool has been the subject of intense debate in the community. However, at the start of the global pandemic, no one, and even health experts, knew the extent to which people with COVID-19 could spread the virus before they actually showed symptoms. (WHO) and other health groups to take a face-to-face action on the use of these masks and respirators. The World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have now recommended the widespread use of face masks to prevent transmission while slowing the spread of the virus. Controlling the spread of respiratory infection at source through face masks is a well- established strategy. An asymptomatic patient may cough or sneeze, so they are usually advised to wear a face mask. With large numbers of asymptomatic patients unaware of their own infection, it can also lead to the spread of droplets and aerosols while talking and breathing. Face masks as a source of control in public places. Strongly recommend universal use. Use N95 masks when caring for patients with confirmed or suspected coronavirus disease out of concern for airborne transmission. The use of masks avoids cross-transmission through inevitable person-to-person contact and reduces the risk of indirect contact. Tight-fitting masks known as N95 are known to provide high protection. However, when it comes to the N95 mask, it offers more protection than any mask for healthcare workers because of its high filtration capacity for both large and small airborne particles that are released when the wearer inhales. As the name indicates, these are designed to fit a tight or close face, to provide the required air seal.
