What is this? A KN95 mask is a face covering meant to block small particles in the air. Some masks do not work well because they let too many particles through.
What's happening? Tests show some masks do not filter enough air. This means germs could pass through and raise infection risk.
Does this affect me? If you use one of these masks in Germany, it may not protect you well. This is especially true if you rely on it alone.
What should I do? Stop using the mask. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice on safer masks.
