In recent report, It is said that 60% of Chinese face mask factories have serious hygiene issues. Where to get face mask which are not made in China.:)

Update: I found a site gesani.ca which deliver local made face masks in Montreal, Canada.

I think that wearing masks... any masks... is not safe at all. Think about all bacterias and viruses that can live on this mask and you can infect yourself only wearing the same mask a few times.

Wearing a medical mask can help limit the spread of certain respiratory illnesses. However, using a mask alone does not guarantee that infections will stop.
