Recall Action Instructions |
The TGA does not require the face masks to be physically recalled (or otherwise removed) from the market.
These masks should not be used in clinical or patient/caregiving scenario including hospital wards, operating theatres, general practice, nursing homes or during in-home care / support services where there is a risk of blood or body fluid splash or spray.
At the user’s discretion or where the use of face masks is mandated under the provisions of a state or territory public health order, these masks should only be used in non-clinical environments such as domestic households, retail shops, food and beverage outlets, public transport, outdoor settings, etc.
Customers should consider: • quarantining the product; • using them in another setting; and/or • if they do not have alternatives, ensuring that a face shield is used in high risk settings
