This year as children of all ages, and their parents, make plans to participate to some degree in the traditional festivities associated with Halloween, they may be heartened to know that masks definitely add a layer of safety.

Protect Yourself While Enjoying the Season

Just in time for this popular fall holiday, Wynd is excited to announce the availability of its KN95 masks which provide 5-layer protection. Comfortable and lightweight, the masks have an ergonomic design for maximum comfort and an adjustable nose clip for a good fit and seal. K95 masks protect you from bacteria, viruses, pollution particles, fine particles, dust, smog, pollen—and reduce the risk of bacteria and viral infections. Although you might opt for a wig or fun costume come October 31st, traditional Halloween costume masks are not sufficient to control the spread of COVID-19 (Mayo Clinic).

As you’re enjoying the season here are some additional safety guidelines and tips to help you enjoy the holiday safely.

Participate in Low-Risk Activities

The good news as we enter the 2020 holiday season, according to the CDC, is that “celebrating virtually or with members of your own household poses low risk for spread.” For other types of activities consider:

• Celebrating outdoors when possible as indoor gatherings pose more risk
• Limit the duration of activities, especially when indoors.
• Limit the number of people celebrating—state and local regulations will provide guidance on what’s appropriate
• Practice social distancing—stay at least 6 feet away from others who are not part of your immediate household

Taking the Scare Out of Scary Air

Air indoors can harbor some scary pollutants—like VOCs, radon, formaldehyde, smoke, mold, carbon monoxide and other pollutants. But you can minimize exposure and risk with the right indoor air purifier. Wynd offers options ranging from portable to large space solutions that represent the highest quality in removing indoor pollutants.

In fact, Wired included Wynd’s air purifiers in a list of “the best air purifiers we’ve tested.” .Whatever your space and whatever your air purification needs, Wynd can help.

Halloween is a scary time; more so in 2020. But, while it’s important to continue exercising caution as the coronavirus remains a risk, the good news is that it is still possible to enjoy some traditional Halloween activities. Looking for some safe but fun ways to celebrate Halloween? Here’s some great information to help you make the most of the festivities during these far-from-normal times.

This Halloween stay safe, have fun, and consider the added protection that Wynd provide.
