Furthermore, the mask does not fit correctly to the face of the user. Consequently, an excessive amount of particles or microorganisms might pass through the mask; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.",
