    This study aimed to investigate the performance of the general population passing quantitative fit tests for one type of N95 respirator (3M Aura Respirator 9205+) and consider the role of gender, age, race/ethnicity, and facial hair in the fit testing pass rate. The data was collected using a demographic questionnaire from the general population attending the Minnesota state fair 2021 and 2022. Demographic information included age (in years), gender, race/ethnicity, and facial hair (yes/no and type). Each participant also performed quantitative fit testing of N95 respirators (3M Aura Respirator 9205+) using a TSI PortaCount Pro+ model 8038. Fit testing was conducted according to the quantitative OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 standard protocol with a criterion of ≥100 for pass level fit factor.
