ViRIMASK™, An Evolutionary Advance in Viral Facemask Protection for Coronavirus! A paradigm Shift in Future Management of Viral Threats

The ViriMask is a full face mask for the NHS and all frontline healthcare workers currently dealing with covid-19 crisis and lack of sufficient PPE. Most current masks (N95) are limited in continuous use and are not particularly comfortable, or hygienic in longer term wear.

ViriMASK is strapped around the head, covering the eyes with a see-through visor and the nose and mouth with protected with a disposable filtering component. The mask can be washed and reused. The filters must be replaced after 60 hours of use and disposed safely via the envelope provided. The mask is designed with comfort and fit in longer term use in the design DNA. Fresh filters must be changed every 60 hours. The 60 hour filter supplied comes with a storage pouch for in between uses.

Virimask is designed to last a lifetime with good care, simply wash in soap and water or wipe with alcohol wipes. Covid-19 is the current major concern. However, pathogenic threats are a continual threat, Ebola, SARS and MERS are widely recognised challenges in recent years. Virimask, can be stored ready for use in future threats.

Information on the Current Crisis!

Coronavirus is a challenge the world has not faced in a century. Many news items highlight exhausted nurses with face bruising from continuous hours wearing mask protection;

Virimask is designed with maximum fit comfort and respiratory comfort performance in long term use!

Many people are wearing face masks to avoid breathing coronavirus particles, and to keep from touching their noses and mouths. However, even N95 masks can’t fully block tiny virus particles. Any blocked viral particles stay on the mask’s surface and pose a hazard when handled and thrown away.

  • Existing Disposable Masks are an environmental hazard; Envirionmental issues from existing masks, Virimask addresses this with the disposable filter seal envelopes supplied!
  • General use of effective Facemasks - The only European nation adopting general face maskwearing
  • Evidence that higher level protection produces safer experience – the Sky news item on gas mask approach for protecting healthcare workers. Furthermore, the equipment shown at 3.20 looks like it has enormous dead space meaning respiratory work rate equally large.

Viral Spread.
Interesting work by Aalto University in Helsinki on recent research into Covid19 virus spread in the supermarket. If the person coughs and does not cover their mouth. The droplets will take minutes to expand. The yellow is the virus impact and the blue is the wet droplet impact on the hard surfaces.

ViriMASK™ provides a Barrier-Frame around the nose, mouth and eyes (shown schematically in red).

This frame is made from elastic biocompatible materials with compliant sections according to the wearer’s face softness and is designed to fit snugly to the wearer’s skin surface.
