What you are seeing in the picture is a face mask costing 800 pesos, that's $16. It is expensive because of that silly electric fan powered by a small battery. I know that is just a novelty but it is amusing so I am sharing it here. Don't ask me if it is effective against the virus, maybe yes and maybe no.

You are right. I also think that it is not effective against the virus because the electric fan even suck in the droplets.

That is one really classy face mask.
The fan would probably be very good in really hot weather I guess.

For sure the fan would help ease the summer heat.

@lovinangelsinstead21 it is for sale in an online store so I guess it is selling good now with lots of orders.

It is wearable and comfortable. I just cannot say if it is an effective shield against the virus.

Looks cool but I think I cannot afford it. And I won't buy because virus can still penetrate on it.

@Alexandoy is the fan configured as inward or outward?

That's also my take on that electric fan. It may just suck the virus, waheehee.

I have never seen one quite like that, but who knows... Someone was thinking up possibilities!

Some creative people do invent such things that are popular now.

Very interesting indeed. Some creative people are cashing in on the popularity of the face mask.

@Hannihar I agree with something that will work. But that face mask in the picture may not really work.

If there is a shortage and they can make something good that will work I say go for it.

I feel odd about this They should in fact give everyone free masks.

Who is to give everyone a free face mask, the government?

You are right, it's expensive and not worth buying.

More likely it will not work, waheehee. It is silly to have an electric fan but in fairness to the inventor (not me huh) it is a nice novelty that I'm sure many are buying.
