USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- There has been loads of speculation and discussion on what protection will work to keep you safe from the COVID-19 virus. It is pretty clear from most of the reports that the surgical facemasks are only good for keeping you from spreading water-borne virus germs. As far as protection, they do help keep you from touching your face but they don’t fit tight enough to keep particles that are already in the air from getting past the mask.
The only proven protection is a traditional gas mask designed for CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear defense) if you are determined to spend some money and be prepared the MIRA Safety CM-7M Military CBRD Gas Mask is the gear you must own and train with. It is deployed in active duty with 100’s of government agencies across the globe and it is the one we recommend if you want the tactical advantage of being able to shoulder and accurately shoot your defensive rifle.

“What to Do About Coronavirus To help prevent a coronavirus infection, do the same things you do to avoid the common cold: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water or with an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Keep your hands and fingers away from your eyes, nose, and mouth. Avoid close contact with people who are infected. You treat a coronavirus infection the same way you treat a cold: Get plenty of rest. Drink fluids. Take over-the-counter medicine for a sore throat and fever. But don’t give aspirin to children or teens younger than 19; use ibuprofen or acetaminophen instead.”… Read more »
They won’t do you any good. I wore one throughout the eruption of Mt. St. Helens in 1980 as a firefighter. They become too oppressive to wear for any length if time, and can really stress you out after awhile. Just to breath takes effort. So much so, you have to drink fluids through a sippy tube. If you have to spit, you’ve just compromised yourself. If you sweat, you have just compromised yourself. And there’s no sleeping in the damn things that you won’t rip it off while dreaming that a “face hugger” straight out of the movie ‘Alien’… Read more »
What mask to buy? None, you don’t need it. 19,000 dead from the flu this year, where is the hype about that.
Does it also come with a free foil hat?
seriously? a gas mask? Lol. It’s not much different than the flu. I’ll just wash my hands and be vigilant in public places. Preppers make me laugh. Oh, i’m sure they’ll say I’ll be the one to laugh at when “SHTF”, but I’ll take my chances. And I’d do just fine.
I prefer the full dome vision rather than the goggles style. It makes a big difference when your fighting.
