The Low Down on the new JN.1 COVID Threat

The Low Down on the new JN.1 COVID Threat

by Nirvana Being on Dec 20 2023
New Covid variantĀ JN.1, that has been causing a spike in cases in US since September this year, and more lately seems to be sweeping across Singapore, has now been detected in India. While it's not clear if JN.1 variant is a cause of worry yet, India, has witnessed a spike in infection numbers.Ā  According to Dr Nitish Dogra, physician of Public Health, ā€œKerala has become a hotspot of covid outbreak, again. With high literacy rates and advanced healthcare systems, Kerala's disease surveillance is stronger, making it one of the first to report.ā€Ā  So other states may have more cases, we just don’t know it yet. WhileĀ JN.1 resembles other upper respiratory infections caused by seasonal viruses, I believe that there is a strong compelling reason to put measures in place to prevent this from running through the population. What we do know is that JN.1 is highly transmissible, and not a serious threat, however, what we do not know is the additional risk created of Long Covid through reinfection.Ā  With Long COVID, you may have had brain fog and fatigue but not dysautonomia or other manifestations. Long Covid is a broad basket of conditions. Long Covid does not seem to be self-resolving, in the sense of spontaneous recovery or recovery in the absence of a cure or a treatment that’s been validated. Hence, it raises the importance of either finding a treatment or preventing reinfections by adopting N95 masks, social distancing, hand washing, etc.Ā  My limited good sense tells me that Public Health measures should be enforced in all public places even for the healthy population.Ā  When it comes to personal health, always, plan for the worst!
How to reopen schools safely

How to reopen schools safely

by Nirvana Being on Feb 01 2022
How to Reopen Schools Safely? The COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on everyone and we are all looking forward to getting back to normal. Ā There are learnings from each wave that we must use in an effort to crawl towards normalcy. Planning the smooth resumption of indoor activities in schools under current circumstances can be challenging because there are many factors involved in ensuring a safe return. Ventilation in schools needs to be improved before kids return to class and safety measures such as physical distancing and wearing a well-fitted N95 FFP2 certified mask must be followed. Proper ventilation is a key prevention strategy for maintaining healthy environments and, along with other preventive actions, can reduce the likelihood of spreading the respiratory disease by reducing the number of airborne virus particles. As a general rule, the risk of contracting airborne transmitted diseases indoors is high. There are numerous cases that show that aerosols in poorly ventilated indoor environments combined with super spreader events are the main cause for the spread of the disease. Therefore, improvements should be made to increase ventilation, by installing mechanical ventilation.Ā  In North India and most of Urban India, we may need to install filtration as well to maintain safe levels of PM2.5 indoors. Poor ventilation increases the CO2 concentration and consequently the risk of viral infection in the presence of sick occupants. CO2 in outside air is about 400 parts per million (ppm) and a well-ventilated room will be no more than 800 ppm. A CO2 reading below 800 ppm indicates a low risk of infection, CO2 reading between 800 ppm to 1,500 ppm indicates a moderate risk of infection, and CO2 reading above 1,500 ppm indicates a high risk of infection. Without CO2 monitors and with a flawed ventilation model, there is no evidence that all school spaces are safe. Therefore, every school should have CO2 monitors which verify how well air is circulating in classrooms and other spaces. In addition to ventilation, wearing a well-fitting, multi-layer N95 FFP2 certified mask helps keep virus particles from entering the air and protects mask wearers. With the introduction of the 3-layer nanofiber Airific N95 and Nirvana N95 masks for adults and children in 2020, Nirvana Being pioneered a new and much-needed category of reusable/washable masks, with a high filtration efficacy. These masks offer > 96% Viral Filtration Efficiency and are certified by international labs across America, Europe and India. Moreover, Nirvana Being is the South Asia licensee for Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Mattel masks for kids and adults. The masks are available in fun designs and multiple sizes for a snug and comfortable fit. The above are a few examples of how science and technology can provide tools to support decision-makers. The next step is to apply these recommendations to make well-informed decisions for reopening schools safely.Ā  Reach out to us at support@nirvanabeing.com for comprehensive solutions to ensure safety and health of your children.Ā Let’s all please #FollowTheScience!
A N95 FFP2 Mask is Your #1 Strategy to Beat Omicron/COVID-19

A N95 FFP2 Mask is Your #1 Strategy to Beat Omicron/COVID-19

by Nirvana Being on Jan 13 2022
It’s always been right in front of your face, and yet, like everything else, we’ve failed to follow the science.Ā  You guessed it right, it’s the infamous mask.Ā  Not any mask though, but a well fitted N95 FFP2 certified mask. Even if you are buying one, what is the FFP2 particle size it filters? Cause you can only beat science with science.Ā  So, lets discuss the science for a change. Have you ever wondered how many microns is the omicron virus/COVID-19 virus?Ā The average COVID/omicron particle size is 0.12 microns.Ā  So, essentially we need a mask that creates a barrier for COVID/omicron micron size 0.12. Keep in mind that while the virus may mutate and we’ll see variants, the actual particle size will not change. Here is a Breakdown of What anĀ N95 MaskĀ is: N:Ā This is a Respirator Rating Letter Class. It stands for ā€œNon-Oilā€ meaning that if no oil-based particulates are present, then you can use the mask in the work environment. 95:Ā Masks ending in a 95, have a 95 percent efficiency. 0.1Ā Microns:Ā While traditional N95 masks only filter down to 0.3 microns with a >95% efficacy, due to COVID-19, a new class of masks has recently emerged using nanofiber media that has >95% filtration efficacy down to omicron particle size up to 0.1 microns. FFP2: FFP stands for ā€œfiltering face pieceā€. It is a European standard for mask efficiency - FFP2 masks filter > 94% of all aerosols, including airborne viruses such as covid-19. When a mask is labelled as FFP 1, FFP2, and FFP3, micron size that it can filter differs. So with a FFP3, micron size it can filter would be the smallest, followed by FFP2 particle size being bigger and the biggest particle size for FFP1. Ā A study published in December by the Max Planck Institute, a German research organisation, found well-fitting FFP2 masks reduced the risk of infection with COVID-19 to 0.1%. In a recent updated guideline from the CDC, they have upped the standards for masks on filtration efficacy, comfort and fit.Ā  We can’t emphasize the fit enough and the need for masks in different sizes for adults and kids.Ā  Nanofiber filters also solve the problem or comfort as they come with the lowest inhalation and exhalation resistance. Nirvana Being has been at the forefront on mask science and introduced reusable/washable Airific & Nirvana N95 FFP2 community masks with nanofiber filters back in April, 2020.Ā  In a Country with the worst air pollution and communicable disease record on the planet, we felt strongly about delivering the highest filtration efficacy, to drive safety and well-being, for the larger community. Our masks are tested and certified in India, Europe and USA. So know we know how many microns is the omicron virus, we must select mask according to the FFP3 and FFP2 particle size filtration capacity. Remember, no one is safe until everybody is safe. Let’s please #followthescience.
Decoding Omicron

Decoding Omicron

by Flying Saints Creative Agency on Dec 06 2021
In the last few weeks, India has seen a decline in the number of Covid-19 cases as the country and its citizens are striving to move to normalcy after the intense second wave. The two factors that have contributed to this decline are, first- a large population has already been exposed to the virus, and second- approximately 44% of Indian adults have been fully vaccinated while more than 82% have received the first dose at least. However, we have a new cause of concern at hand with another variant of SARS-CoV-2 virus, Omicron. This new variant of coronavirus and has been labelled as a Variant of Concern (VOC) by the WHO. The variant is also responsible for the rise in cases in Gauteng province of South Africa where 90% of the people infected with Covid-19 in the last couple of weeks have tested positive for Omicron. The reason that it has alarmed the whole world is because of the fact that it has risen so sharply to suggest that it is for more transmissible than the Delta variant. Last week, the variant was also detected in Hong Kong, Belgium, Israel, UK and other countries, leading to a ban in many countries on flights from African countries and Hong Kong. Once it has entered the body, Omicron uses human genetic material to multiply itself to infect other humans through a chain of transmission, thus making it more infectious. When a new variant can evade such previously acquired immunity, it largely increases the chances of transmissions. The initial studies suggest a large number of mutations of the variant in immunocompromised people, therefore making it imperative to prioritiesĀ safety precautions for the elderly, children and people with underlying conditions. While there are a lot of questions and concerns on the severity of the impact of this new variant, it is very early to give definite answers, as data is still being collected from different countries to assess the infectivity and virulence, and laboratory studies are being conducted to evaluate the ability of the variant to evade the immunity gained from vaccination or natural infection. The President of Public Health Foundation of India, an epidemiologist has suggested the new mantra to now be MVVT which includes Masks, Ventilation, Vaccines and Testing. Masks have been recognised to effectivity protect against the transmission of Covid-19, while ventilation helps in mitigating the risks of the super-spreader effect. Vaccinations are important to develop immunity against the virus, even if it is only to reduce the severity. We need to exhibit discipline in our efforts to curb the transmission in a sustained manner for a considerable period of time to see actual results. Nirvana Being, India’s leading clean air solutions business, offers an array of products that are essential for every individual in collectively reducing the chances of a third wave. These include certified N95 Masks with Nanofiber filters, tested by Nelson Labs, USA, for having >99% filtration efficacy for a particle size of 0.1 micron, the size of a COVID particle.Ā  While the virus may mutate, the good news is that the size of the virus particle does not change. In these testing times, prepare for the worst and hope for the best, because we already know that - No One is Safe until Everyone is Safe!
Living through a Twin-Demic

Living through a Twin-Demic

by Flying Saints Creative Agency on Nov 29 2021
Air pollution is undoubtedly the most problematic type of pollution and it is made worse by the fact that everyone is exposed - because everyone needs to breathe! The major factors contributing to the increasing PM levels include unpaved roads, ill-regulated industry, an ever-increasing number of road vehicles, biomass and waste burning. It is imperative to understand that we are living through a ā€œTwin-demicā€ including both Covid-19 and Air Pollution – both create a respiratory distress in the human body. The World Health Organization estimates that one out of every eight deaths in the world is due to conditions associated with air pollution. Where Covid-19 has taken lives of about 4.64 lac people in India so far, about 1.8 million people lost their lives to air pollution in 2020 alone, more than 4 times the number of Covid deaths that the country suffered. It is estimated that the Years of Life Lost(YLL) from living and breathing in Delhi’s air is 10-12 years. TheĀ effects of air pollution involve a large variety of illnesses, starting with the simpleĀ irritation of eyes, nose, mouth and throat or diminished energy levels, headache and dizziness, but also potentially more serious conditionsĀ - of which the most common are: Respiratory and lung diseases,Ā including Asthma attacks, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Reduced lung function, Pulmonary cancer (caused by a series of carcinogen chemicals that enter the body through inhalation),Ā MesotheliomaĀ (a particular type of lung cancer, usually associated with exposure to asbestos and it usually occurs 20-30 years after the initial exposure), Pneumonia, etc. Leukaemia – a typeĀ of blood cancer usually associated with exposure to benzene vapours (through inhalation) Birth defects and immune system defects Cardiovascular problems, heart disease and strokeĀ (an increased risk especially due to particulate matter) Neurobehavioral disorders - neurological problems and developmental deficitsĀ due to air toxins such as mercury (which is the only volatile metal) Liver and other types of cancer – caused by breathing carcinogenic volatile chemicals Premature death- Air pollution kills around 116,000 infants in India every year within the first month of being born. More than half the infant deaths were due to PM 2.5 in outdoor air and the rest were linked to household air pollution due to use of solid fuels, such as charcoal, wood, and animal dung for cooking, found the State of Global Air 2020. For the first time ever, we are hearing the words Air Emergency and Air Pollution along with Lockdown in the same sentence, seems like we’re actually delving into the severity of the problem for the first time. The media is round the clock covering the worsening air pollution in Northern India and the Delhi Government has also filed a petition with the Supreme Court. While we hope for the best, let us all be prepared for the worst. Ā Stay safe and breathe pure!
Are schools following the science on their masking strategy?

Are schools following the science on their masking strategy?

The education space in Delhi NCR has been forced to make some serious adjustments over the past 5-6 years as air pollution and now COVID has raised some serious health and safety concerns for our children.Ā  Almost seems that the core focus has shifted from education to prioritising health and safety. After a break of 18 months due to COVID, there is an increased pressure to re-open schools from Government and parents to return to a normal, with COVID.Ā  The fact that schools, colleges are trying to open their doors at a time while children and still unvaccinated and the timing overlaps with peak air pollution season in North India, raises additional challenges. While Government has repeatedly stepped in to close down schools in Delhi NCR over the past few years once AQI levels exceed emergency levels, some of the leading proactive schools of Delhi had created special taskforces focused on reducing the exposure of their children (to air pollution). Faced with 2 looming challenges of COVID and air pollution, The Ardee School, a leading school in Delhi has taken the approach of procuring reusable N95 masks with nanofiber filters for their staff and students, custom manufactured with their logos and matching with the school uniform. Ā  Advantages of uniform N95 nanofiber masking at Schools are- Uniform masks that are compulsory for everyone makes it a necessity and ensures that the same level of protection is maintained between every person within the school premises – since no one is safe from COVID, until everyone is safe! N95 Nanofiber fitted masks in multiple sizes filter all the inhaled and exhaled air, are highly breathable, reduce air pollution exposure and mitigate COVID risk. While masks are compulsory in all schools, masks of variable quality and safety increase risk As parents and educators, it is important for you to ask the authorities of your child’s school as to what steps they are implementing to ensure risk mitigation and let them know these essential steps that schools like The Ardee School is taking and setting an example for everyone to follow.

At the end of the monsoon season over North India, in mid-to-late October and most of November, the Delhi NCR region experiences Episode 1 of its long air pollution season.Ā  The residue burning from the paddy fields across the states of Punjab, Haryana, UP, Uttarakhand and more creates an annual combustion event that impacts the health of over 700 million people in the densely populated Indo-Gangetic Plain.Ā  The timing of this event at the onset of winter, with the lower morning temperatures, keep the pollutants lower near the ground, where we breathe and make it harder to disburse.Ā  It is not just the toxic haze that worsens but it pollutes swathes of the northern parts of the country and creates a massive health crisis, putting hundreds of millions of people at risk. Some estimates state that farmers in India burn more then 23 million tonnes of paddy stubble each year. The onset of winters brings farm fires with it, massively impacting the nation’s capital, dramatically raising the air quality index, and increasing the PM2.5 to more than 100 times the safe threshold levels defined by the World Health Organization (WHO). After the monsoon season ends in the country, the meteorological conditions favour a more stable atmosphere where the pollutants accumulate and reside for a longer duration, leading to severe levels of pollutions. In 2020, it is estimated that 1.8 million people died from air pollution in India, way more than COVID. Experts suggest that Covid-19 and its effects worsen with a deterioration in air quality and cited a direct link between 30% of total covid deaths in the world and air pollution. As the country is recovering from the 3rd wave of the pandemic, it is a shared responsibility of all humans to consider planetary health and not add to the already existing burden on the medical infrastructure. A study conducted in 2019 suggests that when a person is exposed to high level of particulate emissions, it decreases the functionality of the human lungs, which has a more adverse impact on children, who are more likely to develop asthma or chronic pulmonary diseases. With all the schools and public spaces opening, the children are as exposed to the outside world as the adults are. As we all pray for the COVID pandemic to end, we need to collectively prepare for the paddy burning season which usually starts in the beginning of October every year, with conditions intensifying in late October once the wind direction changes to one out of the North West. The local combustion from the diyas and fireworks during the festive season only adds to the problem. While the Government of Delhi had reversal of air pollution as an election promise in 2020, so far, the initiatives have been more band-aid fixes and it is apparent that there is no comprehensive strategy.Ā  In any case, air pollution knows no boundaries and the Delhi Government will need to work with the Governments of Punjab, Haryana, UP, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan and more to reduce emissions at the source, in the entire airshed.Ā  Any reversal of air pollution for this upcoming season looks highly unlikely in the absence of any comprehensive plan. The blog is more of a bugle call to the residents of North India that ā€˜Winter is Coming.’  Nirvana Being’s range of air purification solutions provide complete protection while you are indoors (Airgle, Mypurmist, Nanotechnology AC Filters, etc.) and outdoors (Airific 2.0 and Nirvana Masks with Nanotechnology, IdMasks, O2 Curve, etc) that help you breathe pure, without compromising your lifestyle.

The Swiss Cheese Model & Covid-19

The Swiss Cheese Model & Covid-19

by Nirvana Being on Sep 10 2021
Studies conducted over the last 18 months on Covid-19 evidently show the infection to be primarily airborne. Nirvana Being conducted a study with Dr. Nitish Dogra, MD, MPH (Johns Hopkins University, United States) to understand essential means of preventing Covid-19 in children. Dr. Dogra in his study used the Swiss Cheese Model to explain that any single action for prevention is not adequate to protect against covid, and it is infact dependent on a number of precautions that an individual has to take at a personal and at a social level to minimise the chances of transmission. Since mid-august, we have been hearing that schools are preparing to open their gates for children soon. There are various precautions that will be compromised with children being exposed to one another some of which include lack of physical distancing and children may not be able to follow hand hygiene and cough etiquettes as efficiently. Classrooms tend to have large number of children in a single room, therefore resulting in limited ventilation which is a cause for concern. The government has listed various protocols that should be followed but the lack of financial aid by them to support the schools and such institutions have been an impediment in the implementation of such protocols and guidelines. Covid-19, as we all know, can either be symptomatic or asymptotic, so even if children are not showing symptoms, they could be carries and infect people around them. The long-term effects of COVID-19 are still unknown, whether or not it impacts the children’s development in the long run. Considering all the issue discussed above, Dr. Dogra highly recommends the use of masks as it plays a vital role in the intervention strategy to protect transmission of Covid-19. Evidence from other studies suggest that wearing masks not only makes the transmission less likely, but has also shown results to substantially reduce the hospitalisation rates. It is not easy to constantly wear a mask for a long duration, especially for children. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure that children are well aware about the correct way of using the mask and be taught to wear it at all times. Other methods of intervention are using face shields or spectacles. Schools, on the other hand, need to ensure that teachers and staff members are vaccinated and are using masks at all times. Improved ventilations through open doors, windows and fans, air filtration to filter airborne particles and purification methods using ultra violet germicidal irradiation protection also need to be carried out. However, Dr. Dogra advised in his study that children below the age of 2 years, or the ones having any breathing difficulty, or who are unable to remove the masks on their own when needed, should avoid using masks, and a doctor must always be consulted before you make your children wear a mask. To sum it up, it is the need of the hour to protect the children and teach them the importance of masking, by either explaining the cons of such exposure, or by playing with them and telling them it is a part of their super-hero costume. To facilitate this, Nirvana Being’s range of Nirvana Masks and Airific N95 masks for kids come in designs with your child’s favourite Disney, Marvel, Barbie and Pixar characters, along with a nanotechnology layer in the centre, which gives them maximum protection and all the fun, packed in a set of 2 masks.nir
Buying guide and best practices for a kid’s mask

Buying guide and best practices for a kid’s mask

by Nirvana Being on Sep 03 2021
While it has been advised by Centre for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) that children who are 2 and older should be wearing masks, what is more important is the continuous usage of masks by children when they are in shared indoor spaces and a mask that is safe and comfortable to wear over a long period of time. The mask being used should be well fitted with adjustable ear loops or metal nose bridge so that the mask fits perfectly over the nose and mouth without causing breathing discomfort. How The Masks Work Masks help by creating a barrier for respiratory droplets and not allowing transmission from one person to another. N95 fabric masks with a minimum of three layers are generally advised for children, which are washable and reusable. They should be dried completely before reusing, and washed as necessary once they are dirty, or smelly. Ā Disposable N95 surgical masks are made of non-woven materials and are not advised for children, unless they have underlying conditions, have symptoms of or confirmed Covid-19. Surgical masks are not washable or reusable and should be discarded safely(as bio-medical waste) after 8 hours of usage, as advised by WHO. Although there are a lot of masks in the market that have N95 stamps and stickers, most of them are fakes, as they are not regulated by governing authorities. Such masks could be more dangerous for the children. It is imperative that only those N95 masks should be used which have the appropriate certification and which fit well on the child’s face. How To Ensure Your Child Does Not Take the Mask Off No matter how many masks you get for your children, unless they do not use it properly, is will not be effective in minimising the spread of the virus. Therefore, the first step to ensure that your child will wear a mask is to make them want to wear a mask at all times. There are various ways depending on your child’s psychology, through which you can convince them to not take their mask off. These include explaining them severity of Covid-19 and the importance of masking, or you could get them masks with prints and designs of their favourite cartoon characters or superheroes. Best Practices UNICEF has listed the following as some of the Dos and Don’ts that you should teach the children as important habits for masking- Make sure your child washes their hands properly before wearing a mask, before removing the mask after using it, and after removing the mask. This will protect against any infection that may be on the hands of the child from entering into the body through the face. The surface of the mask should not be touched while wearing the mask as most masks lose their electrostatic charge when the surface is touched. Children’s mask should be changed more frequently than the adults, as children are more likely to be in close contact with others, or there may be infectious droplets of germs or viruses that may sit on its surface. Disposable masks should be removed as soon as they are soiled, and reusable masks should be washed every day. 4.Make sure that your child does not wear a loose, damaged, dirty or wet mask. Loose or damaged masks will not prevent the virus from travelling through the gaps. A dirty mask can be more dangerous than beneficial, as it may carry germs and infections which could cause serious illness. A mask tends to lose its ability to protect when it is wet, and therefore it should be dry at all times during usage. Conclusion To conclude, it is most important, now more than ever with the schools opening shortly, that your children learn how to use a mask efficiently to protect them and everyone else around them as well, because no one is safe until everyone is safe. Nirvana Being has launched a range of Nirvana Masks and Airific N95 masks for kids in fun designs which have a nanotechnology filter layer in the centre and are tested and approved by Nelson Labs, USA. The nanotechnology filter layer gives maximum protection while causing lowest breathing resistance and the designs of Disney, Marvel and Pixar characters, a combination that is not to miss.
Children's Face Masks for COVID-19

Children's Face Masks for COVID-19

by Nirvana Being on Aug 24 2021
Children’s face mask remain a simple but effective way to guard against COVID-19, particularly for youngsters who have not yet received the vaccine. Why Do We Need To Wear Face Masks Anymore? COVID-19 can be present without causing any symptoms. That is why wearing a children’s face mask is still recommended, especially for youngsters who have not been vaccinated. SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is less likely to spread when people use masks. Post two weeks, after receiving the final dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, a child or adult is deemed fully immunised. Is It Appropriate For Youngsters To Wear Masks? Pollution mask for child is still necessary because COVID hasn’t subsided fully. Children could continue to wear a face mask and keep a safe physical distance indoors from persons they do not live with or who may have COVID-19 until they are fully immunised. Anyone who did not receive the vaccine should wear a face mask outside in big groups or when physical separation isn't practicable.Ā With few exceptions, all children aged 2 and up can securely use pollution mask for child, including most children with specific health conditions. However, kids under two should not wear children’s face mask due to the risk of suffocation. Also, no one should wear a facial covering if they are unconscious or unable to remove it on their own. Ā  When Should Children Wear Masks? With rare exceptions, children aged 2 and older who are not completely vaccinated should wear children’s face masks at school, child care, or camp and when participating in group activities such as most indoor sports and outdoor sports that require close contact.Ā They should also wear masks if they didn't keep a safe distance from others, such as in a grocery shop. When travelling by plane, bus, train, or another type of public transportation and at the airport or station, everyone should continue to wear them. OrderingĀ kids masks onlineĀ is an easy thing to do, especially when they are available in exciting designs and patterns that children love! If you have a medically fragile child or an at-risk adult in your home, you might wish to have everyone who is not entirely vaccinated wear masks at home to protect them. How Can I Assist My Child In Becoming Accustomed To Wearing A Mask? It is understandable if your youngster is initially apprehensive about wearing a pollution mask for child. Here are a few suggestions to make them feel more at ease: Talk about it in the mirror while wearing the face mask. Dress up a beloved stuffed animal with a mask. Personalise and have fun with them by decorating them with attractive masks. Show photographs of other youngsters wearing masks to your child. Make a drawing of their favourite character from a book. To assist your youngster in becoming used to the face mask, practice wearing it at home. It is better to answer queries from youngsters under the age of three in simple terms that they can grasp.Ā  If they inquire why people wear face masks, explain that they are occasionally required to do so to keep healthy. What About Children Who Require Particular Medical Attention? Children with compromised immune systems or health issues that place them at greater risk of infection should wear an N95Ā pollution mask to protect themselves.Ā So, while searching for kids masks online, make sure you check the N95 range. Children with medical disorders impair cognitive or respiratory function may find it difficult to tolerate a face mask. Special measures may be required for these children. What Is The Best Type Of Face Mask? Most people can tolerate wearing face masks with many layers of fabric. Make an effort to find the appropriate size for your child's face when browsing through kids masks online. Adult masks usually are 6x12 inches in size, and even a child-sized 5x10 inch mask may be too big for little kids.Ā Very young children may find it difficult not to fidget with their face masks, so be prepared to give your child plenty of gentle reminders. They will learn to obey directions if parents and peers encourage them to wear masks. Children will learn to wearĀ pollution mask for childĀ correctly and frequently when needed, just as they understand the importance of wearing bicycle helmets and buckled car seats. Do Remember OrderingĀ kids masks onlineĀ and wearing them, in addition to physical separation, hand washing, and vaccination as soon as everyone in your family is eligible, is critical in preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection and dissemination.Ā So, are you planning to get the best quality kids masks online? Choose from a wide range from the website today.
Everything N-95

Everything N-95

by Nirvana Being on Aug 23 2021
The N in an N-95 mask stands for ā€˜Non-Oil’ which means that the mask can be used in an environment where no oil particulates are present, and the 95 denotes the efficacy rate of 95%, down to a particle size of 0.3 micron. The medical disposable N-95 masks protect against the Covid-19 virus through their electrocharged outer layer that can attract and trap aerosol droplets. However, what is important to understand here is that this charge degrades once it is in use and has a life of up to 8 hours of usage only. The degradation happens when the mask is exposed to surroundings, which aggravates when used to respire in a warm and humid environment. Traditional N-95 masks were made for one time usage purposes only because of potential contamination once the rapid degradation of their filter’s charge reduces the efficacy. Extended use and re-use of a N-95 mask meant for one time usage can have adverse effects including increase in effort while breathing, shortness of breath, lack of protection post degradation and spreading infections during use or while wearing or removing the mask. While we see every mask packaging having the N-95 sticker and stamp, Honeywell and 3M are the only 2 genuine companies that make N-95 masks for one time usage, primarily for health and front-line workers. To overcome the drawbacks of the traditional N-95 masks, reusable, nano-filtered masks have been created. Nanofibres are considered to make better filters because of mechanical and electrostatic interactions with aerosol particles, which are more competent in efficiently intercepting small particles. They have higher absorption surface areas which gives them a greater ability to capture droplets and particles. In most cases, with the increase in filtration efficacy, the pressure drops, making the mask less breathable, however, with nano filters, pressure drop is inversely proportional to the surface area of filter fibres, which makes the masks with nanofibers more breathable, as they allow more air to pass while maintaining their efficacy. Nirvana Being is the only company in India that provides solutions based on nanotechnology to maintain the highest level of protection, with masks tested by Nelson Labs, USA with a viral, bacterial and particulate filtration efficacy of 96%-99%, while also fulfilling the company’s ethos of sustainability by developing washable and reusable masks that last up to 30 washes, or 500-600 hours of use. With COVID as well as India’s poor record of communicable diseases (in general) and air pollution (winter is coming!), doesn’t look likely like the mask mandate is going anywhere.Ā  For reasons such as sustainability, safety, comfort and value for money, makes a hell of a lot of sense to adopt a resuable Airific or Nirvana N95.Ā  Be safe everyone!
Five Products To Keep You Safe During The Third Wave

Five Products To Keep You Safe During The Third Wave

by Nirvana Being on Jul 29 2021
The second wave of coronavirus had taken a heavy toll on India's population. Hospitals and medical facilities were struggling to keep up with the rising number of COVID-19 patients and the unfortunate and tragic accounts of deaths started rising with every passing day. Although the situation has definitely improved in India, experts predict a third wave in the coming months. During such times, it is we the people, who need to step up and take measures that can prevent the spread of the deadly virus. At Nirvana Being, we firmly believe that in the case of infectious pandemics like this,Ā prevention is always better than cure. Therefore, every family must have the below listed products with them at all times to prevent another outbreak and to keep themselves safe. Ā  Airific N95 Mask In case of masks, an N95 antiviral mask made using a nanotechnology filter such as theĀ AirificĀ mask is highly recommended. Airific has the ability to filter particles down to 0.1 microns including the COVID-19 particle. Moreover, the Airific mask is tested by Nelsons Labs, USA for a Viral Filtration Efficiency and Particulate Filtration Efficiency of > 96%, providing maximum protection. The mask also offers low breathing resistance and comes in 7 sizes to provide a snug fit and extreme comfort. Ā  PPE At Nirvana Being, medical PPE is classified into three categories:Ā eye protection,Ā hand protection andĀ body protection. Eye protection includes safety goggles. They can protect the mucous membranes of your eyes from bodily fluids. If the fluids make contact with the eyes, microbes within the fluid can enter the body through the mucous membranes. Hand protection includes nitrile gloves that protect your hands from microbes and minimizes the possible spreading of microbes. Our nitrile gloves are powder-free specialty gloves that contain natural rubber latex. In terms of body protection, we offer Tyvek Hazmat Suits which provide inherent barrier protection against virus and bacterial hazards and the perfect balance of protection, durability and comfort. Ā  MyPurmist The MyPurmist Handheld Steam InhalerĀ is the world’s only steam inhaler and HEPA air purifier in one. The device is FDA and Health Canada listed as a Class 1 medical device isĀ recommended by doctorsĀ and healthcare professionals for relief from congestion and discomfort associated with viruses, allergies, colds, coughs, flu and sinusitis.Ā  With itsĀ Triple Germ Defense, the warm, moist steam that comes out of the steamer hydrates and opens sinuses while speeding the elimination of excess pollen, PM2.5 and environmental pollutants. Moreover, the device works on plug-and-go principle, making it extremely convenient to get your due dose of steam for quick and easy Covid rehab regime. The way it is designed, the way the heating works, the way the steam is generated and the way you even refill the Mypurmist 2 with sterile water ticks off the health and safety aspects to the fullest.Ā  Ā  Ventimax TheĀ transmission rate of COVID-19 is much higher indoors than outdoors, as the viral load is always higher in enclosed spaces; this transmission is greatly reduced by indoor air filtration and ventilation. To ensure proper ventilation in your homes and offices, you can buy aĀ VentimaxĀ whichĀ pulls in fresh outdoor air from outside your room, through a pre-fitted HEPA filter, to draw in the filtered fresh air – like a window with a filter. It filters all PM2.5 out of the ambient air down to PM 0.3 microns and has the impact of creating a slight positive pressure in the room, so no polluted air can enter. Ā  Ā  Airgle If you've typed the phrase "air purifier" into Google lately, you've likely seen a wide range of machines touting terms like ionizer, electrostatic, air sanitizer, and activated carbon. While great for home or commercial office use, these machines are not what you're looking forĀ when you have a high risk patient at home, or a patient with comorbidities, or someone seeking pulmonary rehabilitation that is immune-compromised. In such cases, what you need is aĀ medical-grade air purifier with a cHEPA technology filter and Titanium ProĀ® UV module- namely, theĀ Airgle Air Purifier.Ā Together, these technologies remove particles down to 0.003 microns with an efficiency of 99.999% - far below the size of a COVID particle. Furthermore, Airgle air purifiers are the first in the world to deliver the highest CADR ratings with a 100 % sealed design. They create a sterile environment indoors by filtering all viruses, bacteria and nanoparticles, down to 0.1 micron. Ā  While COVID-19 is highly contagious, we can only prevent it by staying vigilant and conscious of all the necessary measures. Government and health authorities can help provide us with necessary resources to treat the infection, but the responsibility of prevention lies solely in our hands.Ā  And we all know that ā€˜prevention is always better than cure!’
The best travel mask for your next vacation

The best travel mask for your next vacation

by Nirvana Being on Jul 09 2021
If the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that there are no borders to this world we share. For the first time since the pandemic started, we are seeing a sense of guarded normalcy, slowly but surely, as we return to our lives. With a jab(or 2) and a bag, we are ready to fly away to a much-deserved vacation, far away from the four walls(our bunker) that held us in for most of 2020.Ā  But for all theĀ travel essentialsĀ you’ll need to throw in your bag when you get back out there, one thing’s for sure—Covid travel masksĀ are still a must-have. It doesn’t matter how far apart you and your co-passengers are sitting, because as long as you have a symptomatic person in your shared space, you are at a huge risk- especially with the new highly transmissible variants. The combination of other people who may not be wearing their masks properly or consistently, some of whom may be positive for COVID-19, pose real transmission risks. The best travel mask you can wear must have a high Viral and Particulate Filtration Efficiency, a good fit and high breathability. If you’ve got a long-haul flight, hours-long bus ride, or train to another state ahead of you, you definitely don’t want a Covid travel mask that will be uncomfortably sweaty while you’re in a tight space, or one that won’t protect you and others sitting near you. The best travel mask should keep you safe and secure, while being comfortable enough to wear for every leg of your journey, from check-in to baggage claim. It should also be breathable enough so you won’t feel like you’re suffocatedĀ  by the middle of your journey when you can’t take off your Covid travel mask. Moreover, the best travel mask should offer a secure fit by sealing your face properly. The one-size-fits-all theory does not work well in connection to face masks. On one hand, loose Covid travel masks make it easier for viruses to reach your lungs and cause health issues. On the other, you can also infect others if you have contracted viral infections. So, choose a Covid mask based on the size guide so that it fits snugly and completely covers your nose and mouth. Further, ensure that you get a reusable and washable Covid travel mask, so you’re not creating additional waste wherever you go. The Airific maskĀ by Nirvana Being is the best travel mask you can get considering the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a three-layer Covid travel mask powered by a nanotechnology filter and offers >96% Viral and Particulate Filtration Efficiency to filter nano-particles down to 0.1 micron in size (including the COVID-19 particle which has a diameter of 0.12 microns) as tested by Nelson Labs, USA. On the subject of certifications, the Airific N95 mask is N95, FFP2 certified in India and CE certified as a Community Mask in the European Union as per CWA 17553:2020. While the new mutations/variants may beat the defences of the vaccines, the virus nanoparticle size will not change, hence, a good N95 nanofiber mask is the best travel mask and your safest bet for a confident travel experience.
Mask Industry Shut out From the Marketplace Due to Restrictions by Facebook, Google and Amazon

Mask Industry Shut out From the Marketplace Due to Restrictions by Facebook, Google and Amazon

by Nirvana Being on Jun 23 2021
With scientists and doctors urging the public to upgrade their face coverings to those that can block the tiny pathogens that cause infection, and with footfall at offline stores at an all-time low due to the pandemic, the only option for mask brands like ours (Airific by Nirvana Being) is to sell our masks online. In normal circumstances, selling masks for companies that have all the certifications necessary to prove their efficacy is usually not a problem- except that Facebook, Google and Amazon have now started blocking all mask related ads, citing a policy aimed at ensuring medical-grade masks are reserved for health care workers. The tech giants listed above see our masks as part of PPE, whereas they can also belong with the non-medical category for public use. Using words such as ā€˜N95’, ā€˜filtration’, ā€˜COVID-19’, ā€˜virus’ along with making any efficiency related claims on websites is a strict no-no. As soon as Google, Facebook and Amazon detect that a brand like ours is selling masks, they instantly block the ad account and take extremely long to respond to appeal. Sometimes this process is futile as even after reviews are submitted the ban remains. In our opinion, this ban makes it extremely difficult for the audience to buy genuine masks that offer real protection over cloth or three-ply masks, and makes it almost impossible for mask brands like Nirvana Being that existed pre-COVID to continue their e-commerce activities. These restrictions could also hinder India’s ability to limit new infections in the months before vaccinations become more widely available. We are irked by this situation as we are not allowed to talk about our features directly on our website! This makes it difficult for the clean air solutions industry to catch a break as we are completely shut out from the marketplace. Facebook says that it will maintain a temporary ban on selling medical masks, such as surgical or N95 masks, in order to prevent people from exploiting the pandemic for financial gain. But what is bothersome for us is when we see ads for nonmedical-grade masks that offer close to zero protection! And this is particularly upsetting because peoples’ lives are at stake. A mask is something that directly impacts health and safety from COVID-19. Therefore, the need of the hour is a credible product that checks all the boxes, meets and exceeds standards of the WHO, CDC and most importantly, the highest standards for non-medical masks, established by the European Union (CWA 17553:2020).Ā  Take the example of branded medicines versus fake medicines. When you go to a doctor’s clinic and get a prescription, you will always see names of branded medicines with proven efficacy, which instils trust and confidence in you. Now imagine if your doctor prescribed you a fake/ non branded inexpensive medicine. Just a mere glance at the medicine will not help you figure out if the medicine is fake or not. To add to this, now imagine if you are unable to find any information on the medicine in terms of reputation, efficacy or reports? Would you still have the same kind of confidence and trust while purchasing the medicine? A mask offers as much protection as a medicine from respiratory illnesses. The bans by Facebook and Google are surely justified in protecting their audiences from fake claims- but if a particular mask has all the right features and certifications to protect people from the Coronavirus, shouldn’t this information be widely available? To conclude, the restrictions by Google are essentially pushing more and more people towards fashionable cloth masks without any efficacy which is a major problem if we are looking to flatten the curve. In case of India it is shocking that no government body has come out with any standard for masks. In most countries, governments or medical authorities like CDC in the USA have set guidance on masks all along. However, India has had no guidance on masks since the beginning of COVID-19.
How to choose the best N95 mask for kids

How to choose the best N95 mask for kids

by Nirvana Being on Jun 23 2021
There has been a lot of discussion during the pandemic on whether kids should wear face masks or not. However, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the answer is a resounding yes. N95 masks for kids, especially if they step out of their bubble, will help slow the spread of COVID-19 in kids over two years of age. Are you also searching for the best mask for kids in India? This quick guide can help you choose the ideal kids N95 mask right away.

We know from experts thatĀ vaccine efficacy is variableĀ depending on which vaccine you take as well as when your last dose or booster shot was. Therefore, if youĀ choose kids masks online with a high Viral Filtration and Particulate Filtration Efficiency, your kids will be covered regardless of the virus mutations or new variants as the particleĀ size of the COVID-19 virus does not change. Fits Snugly But Comfortably Against the Side of the Face If you are searching for N95 masks for kids online, you must never compromise on the fit and comfort. An uncomfortable or tight fit can make it harder for kids to access air and a loose fit won't provide much protection. You should opt for Covid masks for kids that are available in multiple sizes to ensure a comfortable yet snug fit for your child.Ā Thus, always buy child size N95 masks in India since they are specially designed to fit children. Also, if you are looking for N95 masks for baby, consider buying the smallest size. Thankfully, a good mask brand will show all the necessary size guide and specifications of kids masks online.

Double masking puts pressure on organs including the heart which makes it more difficult to breathe well. Therefore, it is not recommended in cities where the temperature exceeds 30 degree Celsius.

Mask up and ventilate- because COVID-19 is airborne

Mask up and ventilate- because COVID-19 is airborne

by Nirvana Being on May 26 2021
Wearing a mask outdoors has become the new normal ever since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out. However, one of the common problems that the wearers often face is ventilation. It is necessary to be able to breathe properly as not doing so may lead to other health issues. At the same time, it is also important to make sure that the air you breathe is as clean as possible. While there isn’t much that you can do about the air quality outdoors, you can certainly keep the air in your home or office clean.Ā  Choosing the right mask Picking the right mask goes a long way in ensuring seamless and healthy ventilation. Now, N95 anti pollution mask are proven to be one of the best options from this aspect. With a viral filtration efficiency of more than 96%, these masks offer the best protection. The design of these masks ensures that they would offer very low breathing resistance. However, the nanofiber middle layer in the filter can effectively stop particles from entering.Ā  Why is indoor ventilation important? Despite wearing a mask with low breathing resistance, you cannot eliminate the resistance entirely. Now, being in a stuffy environment can cause breathing difficulties. Stagnant air is likely to have excessive carbon dioxide content, which also makes it unhealthy. Air purifiers and air conditioners require spaces to stay air-tight, which eliminates the scope of ventilation. Some of the ways in which you can ensure adequate indoor ventilation are: Keeping windows open: This is indeed the most common way to ventilate a space. By leaving the windows open, you would be able to let in fresh air constantly. However, this is often impossible, such as in air-conditioned rooms or in places where the outdoor air is too polluted.Ā  Installing Ventimax: This is an innovative mechanical ventilation technology that works by pumping out the stagnant air and bringing in fresh air. It is a great way to avoid the health issues caused by carbon dioxide accumulation indoors. Moreover, the device comes fitted with a HEPA filter. This filters out all the PM 2.5 particles and ensures clean air. Ventimax also prevents polluted air from entering the room by maintaining slightly higher air pressure.Ā  Using Airgle medical air purifiers: Now that you know how to keep the rooms ventilated, you might be interested in keeping the air clean. The Airgle medical air purifiers are quite effective in this aspect. As the name suggests, these offer medical-grade purification and keep the air clean of various pollutants. The Titanium Pro technology used in these purifiers breaks apart viruses, chemicals, organics and bacteria.Ā  Thus, there are ways to keep the rooms in your home or commercial space well-ventilated without compromising on safety. Especially at a time when the coronavirus has become airborne, it is necessary to keep the indoor air sterile. Adequate purification of the air can significantly reduce the risks and ensure a healthy environment. As for masks, it is advisable to wear the ones that offer a viral filtration efficiency of more than 95%.
