I would be concerned they could be used as a strangling agent too. As well as dangling onto clients in close work such as turning a patient.

Hi JayA very topical subject to raise and something that has been brought to my attention numerous times over the last 8 years whilst volunteering in Cambodia. In resource poor countries I advised early on in the pandemic, that they were better to use expired N95 masks than not at all, but just to make sure that the head strap had no sign of perishing and still gives a really good fit (got them to double stretch the bands vigorously). As for face shields, I truly cannot see how they can expire, other than the actual straps if they are rubber and could perish over time.
I see a lot of waste in healthcare due to the expiry date of consumables such as TED stockings that simply can’t expire. We used to be able to ship these to 3rd world countries but can no longer do this.
I’d love to see the “expiry” date challenged on products where the integrity and usefulness of the product determines that is should not have an expiry date. Sure I am opening up a can of worms! Maybe it is something we should discuss at ACPIC and I’m sure Martin could wade in on this. All the best.kind regards

Hi Jayne
They may be taking it from CDC and getting confused with wearing a cloth mask under a disposable mask. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/effective-masks.html
