to break?
"N95 respirators reduce the wearer's exposure to airborne particles, from
small particle aerosols to large droplets. N95 respirators are tight-fitting
respirators that filter out at least 95% of particles in the air, including large
and small particles." (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-

Infected children residing in Limpopo and Mpumalanga and visited the parks accounted for 36% and 16% respectively. No older individuals were affected.
