<div></div> <p>We’ve been wearing and buying masks for over a year now, and the majority of our purchases have been <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/best-face-masks-with-nose-wires-47612174" class="ga-track" data-ga-category="internal click" data-ga-label="https://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/best-face-masks-with-nose-wires-47612174" data-ga-action="body text link">reusable cloth masks</a>. We’ve been <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/does-wearing-two-masks-help-protect-against-covid-19-48137761" class="ga-track" data-ga-category="internal click" data-ga-label="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/does-wearing-two-masks-help-protect-against-covid-19-48137761" data-ga-action="body text link">double masking</a> or using <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/best-face-masks-with-filter-pockets-47487218" class="ga-track" data-ga-category="internal click" data-ga-label="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/best-face-masks-with-filter-pockets-47487218" data-ga-action="body text link">masks with filter pockets</a> (and <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/best-filters-for-face-masks-47618716" class="ga-track" data-ga-category="internal click" data-ga-label="https://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/best-filters-for-face-masks-47618716" data-ga-action="body text link">filters!</a>) for extra coverage. If you are interested in taking it one step further but can’t find any N95 masks, you can buy KN95 or <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/are-kf94-masks-effective-against-covid-19-48127454" class="ga-track" data-ga-category="internal click" data-ga-label="https://www.popsugar.com/fitness/are-kf94-masks-effective-against-covid-19-48127454" data-ga-action="body text link">KF94 masks</a>. KN95 masks are made in China and meet the Chinese standard for aerosol particle regulation but not the US standard.
