Can you reuse an N95 face mask if using it to protect you from viruses?

Not if you are wearing it to protect you from viruses or other sub-microscopic pathogens or pollution/fumes. These N95 masks are more like respirators than a cloth or paper surgical mask. None of these should be reused when used for medical purposes, they should be thrown away after each use since they may harbor some of the filtered particles on the outside that could contaminate people or environments. They can not be washed for reuse, either, this will potentially deform or disintegrate the mask rendering it ineffective. N95 masks must also be medically fit to your face or they will not be effective. They are not recommended for children or those with beards or mustaches because that can allow gaps for particles to enter around the mask. See more in the related questions section.
