[quote=Anonymous]I think there was mass confusion on the KN-95 front when the FDA revoked the emergency use authorization (EUA) for these masks, which don’t get certified by NIOSH (only N95 masks are NIOSH-certified). The EUA was made in 2020 because of the mask shortage. I think the FDA was also concerned about rampant counterfeiting of KN95s and some masks that didn’t meet filtration standards. Anyway, we still buy several well-known brands of KN-95s because my impression from reading the overly complicated government text is that they were at least sampled and tested. But we only buy them from an authorized reseller, and we look at the earlier filtration test results.[/quote]
