Face masks are now commonplace, and required in most businesses, offices and public places, but many people are still wearing the same cloth masks that they have been wearing since last summer. While cloth masks are still better than nothing, they were originally meant to be a stopgap measure due to the need and relative shortage of high grade N95 and KN95 masks for medical workers.

Those higher grade masks are now available to purchase online due to increased manufacturing. You can even check which masks meet the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Emergency Use Authorization standards and filter at least 95% of airborne particles.

Below you can find a list of N95 or KN95 respirators available to purchase online right now. KN95 masks tend to be cheaper because they are only required to meet regulatory approval in other countries, such as China, but they are still approved for use by medical professionals in a healthcare setting. Read more about the difference between N95 and KN95 respirators from the CDC.

Instructions for how to properly use every mask are available on the CDC website or, for the KN95 models, the FDA website.
