Dear Colleagues, 
 
It has been brought to our attention that there are concerns regarding the quality of the KN95 GB2626-
2006 masks which were distributed across 18 countries.  
 
We are looking into the issue with a matter of urgency. In the meantime, the use of the masks should be 
refrained until this matter is clarified.  
 
We would appreciate any additional feedback on quality controls run by other countries. 
 
Kind regards, 
 
HSC Secretariat
