How to Use Your N95 Respirator
Respirators are made to protect you by filtering the air and fitting closely on the face to filter out particles, including the virus that causes COVID-19. They can also contain droplets and particles you breathe, cough, or sneeze out so you do not spread them to others.
Respirators must form a seal to the face to work properly. This is especially important for people at increased risk for severe disease. Respirators have markings printed on the product to indicate they are authentic, see appropriate N95 and KN95 markings.
Wearing a respirator can make it harder to breathe. If you have heart or lung problems, talk to your doctor before using an N95.
The Strategic National Stockpile has distributed N95 respirators to pharmacy distribution centers throughout the country. For specific manufacturer’s instructions for your N95 model, visit Free N95 Respirator Manufacturers.
