These types of masks are usually used in surgical procedures or by dentists to help in protecting the user from bodily fluids like blood, saliva and other secretions that could contain bacteria and germs. Although these N95 are designed to protect against these large particle threats, they are not effective in protection against microscopic particles that are present in coughs and sneezes. This is partly due to the fact that the mask does not make an air tight fit between your mouth and the mask.
