Are there N95's without a valve? Cause all I've owned before the pandemic had a valve.

- beagle3 5y agoYes. I’ve had both with and without valves since 2015. Would never buy one without a valve again if I can find one with a valve (in the last year at some times could only find valveless) Fwiw, in Israel it was illegal to use a valved mask without covering the valve with cloth/paper/surgical mask. The official statement was that the pressure out of the valve disperses virions much farther, and is thus more dangerous to people around you if you are presymptomatic than having no mask at all.
