They will err on the side of extreme caution and force significant front end work on the manufacturer to CYA. The only real science involved in the knee jerk reaction. Then HC lays down the law laying out all the hoops that must be achieved. They do nothing, its all on the manufacturer, including all costs and time to setup and run the tests. I realize there are some over on the other boards insisting you were "Approved". There is no approval needed for masks, coated or uncoated other than breathability etc. Its again, why ZEN has never uttered the word APPROVED, its test passed thats it. Now a new set of regulations will come out and their will be more hoops. The best ZEN can hope for is FDA has already had some Graphene coated masks subjected to a higher standard requiring these tests and HC can pull on them. You may say its HCs job to err on the side of caution, if so, then why am I waiting up to 4 months for my second COVID shot, I will tell you why, the Advisory Board is as political as it comes and they are trying to save Trudeau's Ass of Incompetence. We are the only G7 that MUST forgo the second shot because Trudeau screwed up and has Canada as 42nd in inoculations. But those numbers lie because they are single inoculations'. Full inoculation, we are ranked 55th! So now HC plays with Coated Masks "Unless the manufacturers of these masks can provide substantial evidence to support the safe and effective use of graphene-coated masks, Health Canada considers the risk of these medical devices to be unacceptable," Health Canada said.
