Registered Nurses, (back left to right) Jeremiah Fisher, Sierra Linde, and Lillian Arrants along with CNA Gloria Meyers (front), sport their newly donated 3D re-usable “Montana Masks” at Billings Clinic Tuesday Afternoon. They work on the Inpatient Medical Unit and are trialing the Montana Masks as a re-usable option for a standard surgical mask. A total of 340 differently colored masks were donated to the Billings Clinic as a result of Dr. Spencer Zaugg, Colton Zaugg and Billings Clinic Neurosurgeon Dr. Dusty Richardson’s efforts in creating a prototype from scratch due to the corona virus pandemic. 60 Montana Masks are currently being trialed and the rest will be distributed soon.

The designers of the re-usable “Montana Masks” have taken their product to the next level in testing their product to be CDC compliant as well as making the re-usable masks freely available for the masses on their free website www.makethemasks.com. As the coronavirus is projected to peak in Montana in the next two weeks or so, Billings dentist Dr. Spencer Zaugg and his son Colton Zaugg along with Billings Clinic Neurosurgeon Dusty Richardson continue to do extensive tests and research on their 3D reusable masks. read more
