Coppermask: the facial mask in question has been proven to have the capacity to deactivate and potentially kill coronaviruses by up to 99% in just two hours


Coppermask: the facial mask in question has been proven to have the capacity to deactivate and potentially kill coronaviruses by up to 99% in just two

Recent tests have confirmed that CopperMask can DEACTIVATE and may have the POTENTIAL TO KILL CORONAVIRUSES BY UP TO 99% IN JUST TWO HOURS.*

Seriously taking the challenge of ensuring the health and safety of Filipinos during the pandemic, COPPERMASK, a brand known for its stylish and unique facial masks infused with copper strands, has now been clinically-proven to have the potential to deactivate and kill the world’s biggest enemy to date - the CORONAVIRUS.

The All-NEW CopperMask Copper Strand-Infused Facial Mask which was earlier tested to have the capacity to block and kill common bacteria and viruses – HAS BEEN CONFIRMED TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO DEACTIVATE AND POTENTIALLY KILL CORONAVIRUSES BY UP TO 99% IN JUST TWO HOURS.*

In a test conducted by Shanghai WEIPU Chemical Technology Service Co., Ltd. – an ILAC-MRA/CNAS certified research-based testing laboratory facility in Shanghai, China (certified in accordance to ISO/IEC standards), CopperMask Antimicrobial Film was subjected to an anti-viral assay test to determine if it has the potential ability or capacity to kill coronaviruses.  The type of virus that was used in the anti-viral test was GX-P2V (Guanxu Pangolin Coronavirus), a type of coronavirus that falls into the same lineage of the SARS-Cov2 obtained from Pangolins. Pangolins are ant-eating mammals that are often used in traditional Chinese medicine. It is believed that SARS-Cov2 might be of ‘probable pangolin origin.’ The Corona Virus GX-P2V has more than 90% similarity in terms of genome sequence and 92.2% structure resemblance to the SARS-Cov2 or more commonly known as COVID-19 Virus.

So, is the virus tested in this research the actual COVID-19 virus? If not, why?

The SARS-Cov2 or COVID-19 virus, the root cause of the global pandemic we all have been suffering since last year when it was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a pandemic, is a highly contagious infectious disease. And for this reason and for safety purposes, many testing facilities that develop therapeutics, disinfectants and yes, even VACCINES targeting SARS-Cov2 have widely accepted the use of GX-P2V as an ideal substitute to using the actual COVID-19 virus due to its higher degree of affinity (amino acid sequence, ace receptor similarity, etc.).

WHAT THE TEST HAS PROVEN:

CORONA VIRUS NAME – GX-P2V INCUBATION PERIOD OF 30 MINUTES INCUBATION PERIOD OF 2 HOURS INCUBATION PERIOD OF 24 HOURS
ANTI-VIRAL
ACTIVITY RATE
98.98% 99.07% 99.15%

  Reference Report No.: WP-21055252-JC-01En

The test have proven that CopperMask Antimicrobial  Film has the capacity to weaken viral activity rate of coronaviruses by up to 99.07% after incubation period of two hours and 99.15% after twenty-four hours, thus, DEACTIVATING AND KILLING THE CORONAVIRUSES.

CopperMask also underwent extensive clinical tests from reputable research testing facilities in China and Korea to test its efficacy and safety on common bacteria and viruses and to detect presence of harmful chemicals and heavy metals.

The following were the certified test results:

• CopperMask BLOCKS 99.99% of common bacteria and viruses**
• CopperMask KILLS 99.99% of bacteria***
• CopperMask contains NO HARMFUL CHEMICALS AND HEAVY METALS****

CopperMask underwent extensive clinical tests from reputable research testing facilities.

So the final question is – given all these tests, is CopperMask a medical-grade facial mask?

According to World Health Organization or WHO, medical grade facial masks should have the following characteristics:

- Has 3 layers of synthetic woven materials
- Configured to have filtration layers sandwiched in the middle
- Available in different thickness
- Has various levels of fluid-resistance and filtration
