Re: Question on surgical respirator selection

[Roslyn Franklin]

Hello everyone,

In the US, the FDA has authorised the use of masks equivalent to the N95 during the pandemic period.
Approved manufacturer’s listed here: : https://www.fda.gov/media/136663/download

Has anything similar been released here in Australia by the NHMRC or equivalent? Or is it just assumed that we can use whatever respirators equivalent to P2 and N95 (such as FFP2, KN95) that we can find?

Thanks
Roslyn
