Dr Robert Redfield, the well-respected director of the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, has testified that mask wearing may be a more effective protection against coronavirus than the potential vaccine that is still on the far horizon.
Why not take the good Doctor’s advice and purchase a Newtown Jets face-mask to maximise your protection in these dangerous times – and also help to Keep The Jets Flying.

STAY SAFE – WEAR A NEWTOWN JETS BRANDED FACE MASK!
As with all health decisions, please consult with your trusted medical professional to determine compatibility with your personal situation if you are seeking a face-mask to wear in relation to medical issues.
We make no medical claims with regard to the usage of these masks.
These are comfortable, washable and reusable face-masks with 3 layers of 150 GSM protective cotton and spandex material comprising 95% cotton and 5% spandex; two black elastic straps secure it in place around the ears.
