Photo of one of our new N95 Mask with an Exhale valve is comfortable as it lets out hot air freely. It protects the wearer from inhaling airborne virus. If the wearer of this mask has a contagious infectious airborne illness it won't protect maskless people in the room from anything the wearer of this mask exhales. Its not designed for sick people to wear in order to protect others but it does protect the wearer.

In some ways I would say this mask is safer at least for for the wearer than the masks without an exhale valve because the masks with exhale valves simply allows breath to flow out freely... The mask stays tighter on the face because if one exhales heavily the air shoots through the exhale valve rather than unintentionally through the sides of a mask that doesn't have an exhale valve, Therefore the exhale-valved N95 masks stay on face better and also a lot less sticky moisture builds up inside the mask.

My loved one loves this new mask as she is 77 and when she walks outdoors heat doesn't build up in the mask(because of the exhale valve) yet I know she is safe just incase a maskless neighbor (who are but Trojan horses to us) attempts to  approach us or momentarily  walks up to us against our wishes too close in our personal space for comfort. Great to have our masks on in advance for the occasional maskless clumsy lonely old man who is always sick and stands to close to you with spittle that falls and flies from his old lips as he speaks of superficial happenings... perfect for that that  maskless tourist that might try to ask for directions..  or maybe some maskless Bible thumpers or  some maskless ‘man on the make’ might get in your face when you are out there on the hard road ya can't be too careful that’s why I wear the mask in public.

By the way, I mean no disrespect but many of us us maskers naturally  have boundaries that others don't. Some people mask because they have to enter a room while many of us who mask don't want to socialize or come into close contact with others which might explain some of my natural hostility or rather defensiveness towards the maskless especially those who are the touchy feely in your face type. Even though I mask I prefer to avoid going indoors and I avoid gatherings even outdoor gatherings.  My loved one and I both mask when we walk and I watch over her making sure passerby's simply stay on route and pass by. We keep a steady pace and on that rare occasion there is somebody walking they keep their distance and we walk to opposite side of street than them. We all have boundaries. Typically a neighbor or two will drive by with a little wave from their car and I just nod my head acknowledging their presence. I'm a fairly fit guy with a martial arts background ...

...I leave it up to the individual to decide if walking in a mask on their own road is a safe activity or not. Typically I would advise most people who mask to avoid the public in most cases and seek alternative exercise inside the safety of their own home. As a masker I am personally try to keep my distance from the maskless and I find it in my best interest to avoid maskless people. 

Always be masked and ready for those careless maskless Trojan horses! What pops out of these Trojan horses and starts out as a tickle in the throat can turn into relentless torture like razor blades in the throat. Choose a an N95 Mask instead of a disease! ..No matter what walk of life you choose or are on, Its a great feeling and being masked knowing you aren't taking unnecessary risks and chances with airborne illnesses. If you ask me being a masker makes it easier to sleep at night knowing you masked and aren't reckless with your health!

Very comfortable fitting mask that doesn't feel hot or muggy for us while we walk to the end of our street and back!

Don't leave it up to luck whether ya get sick or not. Get yourself a good set of protective gills...I certainly didn’t come into this world like a lion only to leave it whimpering from illness all for lack of good masking,
Wear a mask!,

P.S. She got two boxes of these masks ordering them from webstaurantstore

We went for another nice walk and again this mask was ideal for my loved one because of the exhale valve it felt less like she was suffocating. I typically use a big respirator mask with cartridges designed for warding of airborne illnesses (and occupational hazards and contaminants and allergies) outside the house because it has heavy duty straps and I like using it in rugged outdoor situations but yesterday I was pulling some air conditioner out of the window and taking it outside while wearing this N95 mask with exhale valve and found it it quite comfortable while really exerting myself lifting heavy dusty old air conditioner. That exhale valve kept my face cooler and glasses from steaming up. The N95 masks with the exhalation valve also make one a little more understandable when talking through the mask which is a nice bonus feature.
