A Short Guide to Traveling With a Face Mask

 

If you need to travel during the pandemic, then you may be aware that in addition to health measures like frequent hand-washing and social distancing, you'll also need an airplane face mask to help protect yourself and others from the COVID-19 virus. Airlines, passenger trains, and ride-sharing companies like Lyft and Uber now require travelers to cover their noses and mouths, but wearing a HOOD-19™ and SHIELD-19™ by Colorado Cases will also protect another critical mucous membrane area; your eyes.

With medical experts' advice, the U.S. Travel Association has stated that mask usage is an essential element needed for a safe and speedy recovery of travel and tourism. While there are many airplane face masks to choose from, wearing a lightweight HOOD-19™ and SHIELD-19™ by Colorado Cases will give you extra protection. They are also less expensive than other combination coverage options, such as N-95 masks paired with separate eye protection, like goggles.

The HOOD-19™ and SHIELD-19™ are also made out of a PET clear monfilm providing a clear, direct, and peripheral vision in all weather conditions. They are designed to be comfortably worn for long periods of time, whether as an airplane face mask or anywhere you go. If you're going shopping, to work, or out to other public spaces, you can wear this high-quality PPE with confidence.

The Best Face Masks for Travel

 

Wearing a travel face mask has been commonplace in Asia for a long time. In their populous cities, it's a gesture of goodwill. Most people see face masks as a way to protect others from any germs you may be carrying. It's also a small way to reduce the risk of catching a virus yourself. In the west, face masks are new and have only become common with the onset of the COVID-19 crisis.

For the average person, regular N95 masks are difficult to find and use as a travel face mask. They also do not protect your eyes in crowded places (like using mass transit) the way wearing a HOOD-19 or SHIELD-19 by Colorado Cases would.

Which Face Masks are Most Effective?

The consensus among medical professionals is that any travel face mask is better than wearing none because:

• It Is a Physical Reminder Not to Touch Your Face
• It Prevents Infected Droplets From Traveling To and From Your Mouth
• It Is a Visual Signal That You Care About Transmission
• It Is a Signal That You Wish Others to Respect Physical Distancing

 

Best Everyday Protection

SHIELD-19 and HOOD-19, as sold by Colorado Cases, Inc, prevents viruses from spreading through mucus membranes. Our eyes contain mucus membranes, and most masks do not provide eye protection.

SHIELD-19 and HOOD-19 are travel face masks made of fluid-proof durable nylon material and has a large, optically clear window for excellent front and peripheral vision. It is also adjustable with a hook-and-loop strap in the back.

The SHIELD-19 and HOOD-19 are made out of a Durable Water Repellent nylon fabric and PET monfilm and is perfect for staff who work in warmer environments such as emergency rooms and factories.
