Me same with Notdumb but not so long. Usually around 10 days when it becomes smelly when I wore it. I dun change often because I always wore it on my chin and pulled up to cover my nose when I see someone approaching me. After passing I pulled it down again. The longest time I wore that mask is around one hour when I went shopping or barber. My one box of mask bought since the start of this pandemic still got about one third box remaining.

How come masks now so cheap?  $1 for 10 pieces?  I didn't buy it but becos I was changing something cos the product didn't fit and the replacement cost a bit lesser the shopowner threw 2 packets of disposable masks (10 masks per packet) for free Big Grin

After every usage I  will just dispose it, although it still looks clean.

But you never know the invisible viruses could be lurking outside the mask. 

Seems wasteful but it is supposed to be a disposable mask after all.

If you read the instructions,  it's stated that it should be disposed off after each usage.

I dun trust the effectiveness of those $1 for 10 masks. I only used those I bought earlier at around $50 for one box and those given free by Termasek and MOH when my family members went for vaccination. At the rate I am using, they shud last me a life time. 

Another thing is when I go crowded places, I change my disposal mask to N95 mask before entering. So next time if you happened to see someone changing mask at the entrance, that's me (NVY)..... Big Grin
