At this point in the pandemic, it's no surprise that the virus that causes COVID-19 has continued to mutate into more contagious subvariants beyond Delta and Omicron. And with the latest one, named XBB.1.5, officially deemed the "most transmissible" COVID subvariant yet—not to mention this particularly terrible cold and flu season—many retailers have put face masks on sale during the long holiday weekend for shoppers to stock up on.
Retailers from Amazon to Walmart have slashed prices up to 81% on a range of face masks and respirators from individually wrapped N95s to bulk boxes of KN95s for kids and adults as part of their wider long-weekend deals. Both N95s and KN95s offer high filtration and one is not recommended over the other. However, when shopping all the sales out there, you do want to be on the lookout for counterfeit face masks and also for ones that have approval by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
