Someone wrote here that those blue paper masks like doctors wear and what’s handed out at stores are nothing but moisture barriers and that the COVID virus is so small it goes right through it; like a chain link fence trying to stop mosquitos.

Interestingly, if you look on a box of masks, it even warns that the masks don’t protect against viruses.

Mask boxes are labelled that way because of Federal Food Drug & Cosmetic Act granting the Secretary of Health & Human Services authority to issue an EUA for it.

EUA letter dated 3/24/2020 says to manufacturers of cloth and nonsurgical masks that they can make them as long as box labelling does not say or imply that it is intended for antimicrobial or antiviral, or for use in infection reduction or prevention.

So, it’s OK for them to say it’s -not- antiviral.
