Re: P2/N95 versus FFP2 and KN95

[Roslyn Franklin]

Good morning everyone,

Due to the shortage of P2 and N95 respirator masks, many dentist are purchasing KN95 and/or FFP2/3s.

The NHMRC 2019 Guidelines and the Australian Dental Association IC Guidelines only mention P2 and/or N95 respirators only.

I am interested to hear other peoples experiences using FFP2/3s and KN95 if you have them.

Also, if a KN95 or FFP2/3 mask purchased has been approved by the TGA (given an ARTG) is this an acceptable alternative?

Kind regards
Roslyn
