hi all! I am tetraplegic and drive my wheelchair with my chin. the medical grade facemasks I've tried over the last few years make it impossible to do this while wearing them properly. I have 2 cloth masks that can be worn while driving, but I know they don't offer much protection, so I'm here to ask

if detachable air filters even exist?
whether they can be installed in a cloth mask

This is the moment where a kind product designer should step up and design you a Mad Max type of mask. People are watching you so you'd better give them something to watch ;-) Sorry, no advice about existing masks. Good luck!
