摘要：
A face mask based personal monitoring assembly includes a face mask 1 associated with a compliance sensor 3 for detecting whether or not the face mask is operatively positioned on a person at any relevant time, a cough or sneeze monitoring system (2, Fig.2) for operatively monitoring occurrences of coughing or sneezing of a predetermined minimum severity, and an ambient carbon dioxide concentration sensor operationally relating the carbon dioxide concentration to a projected number of potential recipients that could have exhaled carbon dioxide within a predetermined locality within which a wearer of the mask is present. Communication means is suitable for communicating the outputs of the sensors to a local or remote computer or data processing device that is programmed to produce an output indicating directly or indirectly the risk of infection of one or more of the said potential recipients or the risk of the spread or burden of a disease caused by the bacteria or viruses. The cough monitoring system may comprise a microphone and the compliance sensor may be an exhaled breath temperature sensor.
