Agroup of Portuguese companies and research institutes have launched a reusable face mask capable of reducing the viral rate by 99 percent, thus setting the new world record for being the World's First reusable face mask capable of inactivating the new coronavirus, according to the WORLD RECORD ACADEMY. Named MOxAd-Tech, the textile mask “successfully passed the tests carried out by the Joao Lobo Antunes Institute of Molecular Medicine,” the consortium said in a statement sent to journalists. Credited with reducing the viral rate by 99 percent, the mask has an innovative coating which helps to neutralize SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, when it comes into contact with the fabric. The MOxAd-Tech face mask, which is a result of the joint work between the manufacturer Adalberto, MO (Sonae Fashion retailer), the technological centre CITEVE, iMM, and the University of Minho, is therefore the first reusable mask to inactivate the new coronavirus.
