In a complete turn around from data released in September, researchers now say N95 masks are really offer no better protection against H1N1 flu than the typical disposable surgical mask. Back in September their story was different; stating that N95 masks offered the only true protection against the swine flu. Now after reanalysis, the story has changed; researchers believe N95 masks really offer little advantage over disposable masks. Why the change? Other studies contradicted the earlier findings of the study based in Sydney, Australia. In fact a Canadian study suggested there was no difference between the two types of mask. Looks like more confusion in the ongoing events surrounding the H1N1 flu.
