根因分析
湿纱布或布口罩会迅速被细小的火山灰颗粒堵塞,减少气流并导致呼吸困难;它们也无法过滤二氧化硫等有毒气体。
English
Wet gauze or cloth masks quickly become clogged with fine ash particles, reducing airflow and causing breathing difficulty; they also do not filter out toxic gases like sulfur dioxide.

无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
70% 失败
Multiple layers of wet fabric create a dense barrier that clogs quickly with ash, making it hard to breathe and inducing panic.
-
65% 失败
This makes the mask even more impermeable and can cause inhalation of harmful vapors, increasing respiratory distress.
