I use the N95 regulaly while dealing with patients infected with airborn and droplet transmissable diseases. I suppose it is effective enough for these cases but I prefer the nanomask in my survival kit. It fits better and I know it filters better. I believe it would even filter out prions which is a consideration to me. What’s more, in the event of a weaponized virus, I would prefer the nanomasks improved capabilities. As far as “critical mass to get an infection” goes by the way, it depends on the pathogen. A weaponized virus might induce symptoms after inhaling a very small number of particles for instance. Like I say, I prefer my nanomask even though I use a N95 at work for just this sort of thing.

Use them all the time when I’m sanding old wood to remove shilac and varnishes.

The virus must remain attached to a moisture source such as a sputum droplet. When the droplets hit the masks, the masks stop the droplets and they dry out. The masks are not designed to stop the movement of a virus-sized particle.
