As the hot summer approaches, many citizens wear thin dental masks in place of health care products, such as KF94.
However, experts point out that it is less effective for virus protection unless it is for health use.

[기자]Wearing a mask is an immutable landscape even after switching to life prevention.
However, if you look closely, there are thin masks made of dentistry or linen and cotton.
This is because many people are frustrated with relatively thick health masks as the day warms up.
[유숙의 / 서울 공덕동 : 안 쓰기는 좀 불안하고 KF80이나 94는 좀 답답하고, 더우니까 이걸로 좀 저렴한 것(치과용 마스크) 쓰려고 해요.]In particular, for children who can easily get into the heat, it is essential to have a dental mask before school.
[최귀임 / 서울 공덕동 : 치과용 마스크가 숨쉬기가 편하대요. 애들이 유치원이나 학교에 가면 친구들하고 놀고 종일 뛰어다닐 수도 있고….]Quarantine authorities say it is better than not for dental health or use.
[권준욱 / 중앙방역대책본부 부본부장(지난 5일) : 꼭 KF94를 쓰는 경우는 코로나19 의심자를 돌보는 경우고, 그 이외의 경우에는 다른 마스크를 써도 저희가 권고하는 범위 내에 있다는 말씀을 드립니다.]But if not for health, experts say virus protection is definitely lower.
The thinner the filter, the thinner it is, there is a limit to filter small viruses.
[정기석 / 한림대성심병원 호흡기내과 교수(지난 8일) : 면 마스크를 끼고 계속 기침을 하고 다니면 바이러스가 튀어나옵니다. 엉성해서 사실은 비말(침방울 등)이 옆으로 들어올 수도 있는 거라서….]After all, even if it’s hot and charged, it’s a good idea to wear a certified health mask.
It is necessary to consider how to wear a suitable mask for the summer season, such as frequent ventilation in the room and turning on the air conditioning or taking off for a while in an outdoor environment without people.
A sweat-soaked mask also has little virus protection and is not good for hygiene, so don’t wear it again.
