INTRODUCTION
biological agents and help reduce
the risk for influenza infection
during a pandemic, but will NOT
eliminate the risk of exposure,
infection, illness, or death.
•
This respirator/filter is certified by
NIOSH to comply with the
requirements specified for the
designated filter efficiency level;
however, appropriate authorities
have NOT established a safe level
of exposure to biological agents.
Therefore, the respirator may
NOT prevent transmission of
influenza virus.
•
Refer to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) at
www.cdc.gov for guidance on the
use of respirators to help
decrease exposure to H1N1 virus
or other airborne biological
agents in community, home, and
occupational settings. The CDC
recommends fit testing, medical
evaluations, and training for opti-
mal effectiveness when a respira-
tor is used in a non-occupational
setting. Neglecting these
preparatory measures may cause
an unsafe condition. Respirators
used in an occupational setting
MUST be used in accordance
with a complete respiratory pro-
tection program as required by
OSHA, which includes proper
selection, training, fit-testing, and
fit-checking. Detailed information
on a respiratory protection pro-
gram is available by contacting
OSHA or visiting www.osha.gov.
•
Do NOT remove respirator in con-
taminated areas. The outer sur-
face of the respirator MUST be
treated as if it is contaminated at
all times. Tight-fitting safety gog-
gles, or a full-facepiece respira-
tor, may further help prevent
transmission of influenza virus.
•
The CDC recommends frequent
hand washing and wearing gloves
to help prevent transmission of
disease due to exposure to sur-
faces where contaminants may
be present, and also immediately
following removal of the respira-
tor.
•
Do NOT reuse or share mainte-
nance-free respirators. ALWAYS
clean cartridge-style respirators
before reuse in accordance with
the instructions provided.
•
This respirator/filter is NOT for
use by (a) children, or (b) people
with a medical condition that may
be adversely affected by using it.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions can result in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
