Just pick a mainstream courier that isn't the ****** royal mail.
As you can probably imagine, is a panic shortage over there and I want to send some to my family, but leaflet says I can't send flammable liquid, are there any way for me to send it to them?

Most face masks aren't to the correct specification anyway so that's pointless too in most cases.

Nope, not indeed - your hands and inside elbow joint aren't "to the correct specification" either - it's still better than openly coughing/sneezing.- certainly not "pointless" as that poster is claiming.
The post he replied to was someone saying:
"Face masks are mostly for preventing outward contamination apparently i.e. stops the wearer passing stuff on."
They're not pointless for that purpose - if you want to quibble then "helps prevent" would be better than "stops" but meh...
If the facemask isn't air tight its not going to help prevent anything inward or outward.
False.
Do you just cough or sneeze openly if say on a train etc..?
Is a tissue airtight?
Think about it for a bit... by wearing a cheap mask it's like having a tissue in front of your face:
This isn't all or nothing - it doesn't have to be some full face respirator to help here.
Double false, when your using a tissue your creating a temporary seal to catch germs, assuming the tissue doesn't dissintegrate in your hands is normally sufficient, but that's only for when you sneeze. Not for general use where your just breathing naturally, and as a person who wears glasses, I can tell if a mask is cheap and not air tight, because my glasses fog up and I can't see ****.

They're FFP2, waste of space in your bag. You needed FFP3 or N95 masks. They will be handy if you're plastering a wall out there or something and want to block the dust
However while those are OK for BACTERIA they are not FOR VIRUSES. And Covid-19 is a VIRUS requiring a minimum 0.5% alcohol exposure for 1 minute to die.
eg. doesn't appear to be true for this product
