[ID: Four posters by @LizWhatsHerFace on Instagram. 1. A muscular man wearing a black respirator, a black tank top and black shorts. “Are you man enough to wear the Ellipse P100 Niosh respirator or should I call Kyle?” 2. A thin woman wearing a black N95 facemask, pink lace bralette, white fur vest, pink and white striped pants and sunglasses “Sorry I made it weird when I said my life is worth more than eating indoors at Applebees.” 3. A stacked woman wearing a white N95 facemask and a low cut white tank top “I bring a sort of wear a fuckin mask vibe to the party” 4. A photonegative woman wearing a black N95 facemask and black tshirt “Radical Covid zero extremists want your dick to keep working.” Comment by Liz at the bottom “trying some new approaches 🌈🍔”]

Ooh I own an Elipse p100 that duckers comfy as hell, works great with glasses, does double duty for fire conditions.

#anyone know if Elipse p100 protects against covid?
#bc dude that thing looks sick

From https://pksafety.com/blog/respiratory-basics-n95-vs-p100/:

The number in a rating tells you the minimum amount of airborne challenge particles the mask protects against: an N95 mask keeps out at least 95% of particles but isn’t oil resistant, and a P100 mask is oil proof while protecting the wearer from at least 99.8% of particles.

This included virus particles, so yes, it protects against COVID.

Make sure you pick up some replacement filters!

Guys, NO. The Elipse p100 has an EXHALE VALVE. Meaning it filters the air coming in, but it doesn’t filter the air going out. So, yeah, it’ll protect you from COVID while you’re wearing it, but if you happen to get COVID anyways (it happened to me, the most mask-fastidious person I know irl), then you’ll be breathing it out to everyone around you just the same as if you weren’t wearing a mask at all.

Protect yourselves AND each other. Look for masks with no exhale valve.
