Protect yourself against COVID-19 during fall travel. The CDC recommends everyone get the new COVID vaccine booster for fall 2023. Whatever you choose to do, your safest bet during travel is to wear an N95 mask, in combination with being vaccinated and boosted. These masks are designed to filter at least 95% of all airborne particles larger than 0.3 microns when worn correctly.
To ensure you have enough N95 masks for your upcoming trip, we’ve found some options. They’re approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), which is key, as there are many counterfeit N95 masks for sale online. Fortunately, face masks are more affordable than they’ve been in the past, with COVID numbers declining.
