Abstract

A retractable protective respiratory mask including disposable filters, which protects the respiratory system, covering the nose and mouth during inhalation while breathing in an atmosphere polluted by different agents, such as infectious, virulent, or pathogenic agents, or other toxic substances. The mask also protects non-infected persons from persons infected with a virus, as saliva and sputum expelled when coughing, breathing-out, and / or talking can be deposited inside the mask. The mask can include a collection-container filter, allowing a viral-infected wearer to breathe in a polluted atmosphere, to talk, to cough, to sneeze and / or to deposit saliva and sputum. The mask can be used as any other type of filter mask and / or disposable environmental air mask for industry in general, and also providing protection in rarefied natural atmospheres. The mask can be used as a container or packaging for drugs administered by means of bronchial airways, or as medical or rescue masks.
