A member asked:
Can those disposable surgical face masks be reused by putting them in an oven at a temperature and time long enough to kill whatever germs may be on them? if so, how many times can it be reused before needing it to be disposed of?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Other option : Perhaps but I think the best way is to spray as a lute bleach solution on the inside of the masks. Remember though, when you wear masks, you must also not touch your eyes and other parts of your face without disinfecting your hands and washing with soap and water for 20 seconds.
