Q. What is the difference between surgical mask and N95 mask?
Answer
Surgical mask is 10-80% effective against blocking airborne irritants like droplets dust particles or pollens whereas an N95 mask is a particulate respirator with minimum 95% air filtration efficacy. The latter blocks 95% of 0.3 nm airborne particles – higher filtration efficiency than surgical masks.
