Zusammenfassung:Respiratory devices having first and second lines of demarcation bisected by a fold. The devices are capable of being folded in a first substantially flat configuration for storage (e.g., in a pocket) and are capable of being unfolded in a second ready-to-wear configuration so that a portion of the device covering the nose and the mouth is off-the-face. Processes for making such devices include folding a preform over a bisecting axis and cutting the preform at desired angles and sealing the cuts together to form the mask.
