Clear masks or cloth masks with a clear plastic panel
Clear masks or cloth masks with a clear plastic panel are an alternative type of mask for people who interact with:
- People who are deaf or hard of hearing
- Young children or students learning to read
- Students learning a new language
- People with disabilities
- People who need to see the proper shape of the mouth for making appropriate vowel sounds (for example, when singing).
If you use this type of mask, make sure:
- You can breathe easily
- Excess moisture does not collect on the inside of the mask
- You remove the mask before sleeping, since the plastic part could form a seal around your mouth and nose and make it hard to breathe.
The Federal and Drug Administration in United State of America, recently approved a transparent external icon medical mask.
These transparent medical masks should be reserved for use by healthcare workers and patients who require them.
There are several easy methods to improve the performance of your mask.
