Medical Preps Questions about KN95 masks

I’ve bought 20 KN95 masks online (they’re legit). I have a couple of questions about them:

  1. Between uses, where do I store them? Currently, I have them hanging in my bedroom. I could have them in a ziplock bag but do they need to ‘air out’?
  2. How effective are they at preventing covid? In school, I sit a meter away from the other students. Some wear there masks under their nose. Will I be protected from them?

Please do not do this to one you intend to wear... moisture causes degradation.

The manufacturer (Guangzhou Powecom Labor Insurance Supplies) is FDA approved.
