I looked at the link to the pen. I also noticed, "Production of The Pen is carried out, in the main, by a small group of dedicated individuals, who do it on a voluntary basis". Perhaps it might be more sensible to listen to advice from reputable medical experts?

China's coronavirus supplies are being rejected — how do we ensure quality in a pandemic?

All the average person really needs to do is cover yth mouth and nose.

I find the masks I got from the $2 shop recently quite adequate.
They don't need to be surgical quality.
