What is this? This is a face mask sold under the brands UNIMED, Union, and Medikal. It is meant to protect the wearer from small particles in the air.
What's happening? Tests show the mask does not filter enough particles. The filter may only catch as few as 59% of particles. This means the mask may not protect you well.
Does this affect me? If you bought this mask in Poland, it may not work as promised. You could be at risk if you rely on it for protection.
What should I do? Stop using this mask. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice on a safer mask.
