These masks are recommended by all the experts. I purchased two from our local pharmacy on Friday. Made in China.The warning on the back reads;- 1.

The mask does not eliminate the risk of contracting any disease or infection. 2. Improper use may lead to illness or even death. 3. Some materials in direct contact with skin may cause allergic reactions or even anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals. 4. for adults only. Do not wash. Whaaaat? Who is the idiot that imported these?
Update - I contacted the Ministry of Health to find out if these masks met NZ Standards. They were not interested and they transferred me through MBIE who said the Ministry of Health should be dealing with this. Nothing to do with MBIE. The Pharmacy said the warning is just there so consumers cant sue the company but refunded the cost. Im still working on it and will update soon
Update - This is the reply I received from Medsafe "Masks are considered devices in New Zealand. New Zealand legislation does not require a pre-approval process for devices. Companies may import devices without prior approval from Medsafe the regulatory arm of the Ministry of Health. They must notify their import onto WAND database" ! All masks sold in NZ are not required to be tested or meet NZ Standards as they are classified as devices

Hi neighbours,

Emma Milburn​ and Dart have been a search and rescue tag team for nearly a decade.

But as bearded border collie Dart, 13, gets older, she soon faces retirement, bringing an end to the special career shared between her and her handler.

The pair have been through a lot together. Milburn did all of Dart’s search and rescue training herself, pretty much everyday for eight years straight. The time and dedication it took to train a dog to be operational in search and rescue tasks was often overlooked, Milburn said.
