Do masks expire? Scientists tested new and expired masks to see if N95 masks expire. Tested on real people, even 10-year-old N95s were as effective as new.

Do N95 Face Masks Expire?
Researchers at University of NC
and EPA
tested brand new & 10 year old expired N95 face masks
The oldest masks had expired 11 years before the study
if the expiration lifespan is 5 years, that means the oldest masks were 16 years old

The Northern lights visible from Southern Colorado tonight. Hand held phone photo. Once eyes were used to the dark the pink color was visible with the naked eye, though not as bright as seen on phone screen.

This is why it doesn't matter if some brand of air purifiers aren't a certain class of "HEPA" by a particular rating system, other than for faithful labeling & consumer trust (looking at you, Levoit). All that matters is the independent CADR test (looking at you, Austin Air). /8

To recap, for in-room air cleaners, HEPA *IS NOT NEEDED*. What matters is the combination of filtration, fit, and airflow, to maximize the Clean Air Delivery Rate for a target particle type and size, verified by an independent laboratory test to an industry standard. /7

And in case you are wondering, good quality general ventilation filters will remove health-damaging ultrafine submicron particles too, that optical particle counters can't even detect. /6
