I assume this kept a slight positive pressure inside the mask. If nothing else, it would have provided enough circulation to prevent fogging inside the shield. And blow away the CO2.

Or it could have been a vacuum and that's why I should follow up and see if I can find out. I like it.

Edit: I found it. https://www.amazon.com/BROAD-Rechargeable-Electrical-Purifying-Respirator/dp/B07YWLBVF2/ref=pd_lpo_79_t_2/140-2612504-6837429?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07YWLBVF2&pd_rd_r=2fa8ef5d-27f8-4e1f-bea3-28b70c417c7d&pd_rd_w=cHpf0&pd_rd_wg=AyVUP&pf_rd_p=7b36d496-f366-4631-94d3-61b87b52511b&pf_rd_r=H6VWBGC4ZGYT4S718F3E&psc=1&refRID=H6VWBGC4ZGYT4S718F3E

Good for her.

But it's going to make it worse for her patients.
