Abstract
Protective headgear that is wearable on a head of a user and may be configured to provide impact protection and contaminant protection. The protective headgear may comprise a helmet configured to protect the user's head against impacts and a contaminant blocker configured to protect against contaminants (e.g., infectants), such as pathogens (e.g., viruses, bacteria, or other microorganisms) or other biohazards, chemical hazards, or other hazardous substances, transmittable to or from the user (e.g. as part of spatter, an aerosol, or other droplets). The helmet and the contaminant blocker may be configured to connect or otherwise interact with one another to be usable together. This may facilitate their use to enhance protection of the user and/or an environment of the user, while maintaining performance of the user, including by providing breathability, being spatter proof, ensuring proper vision, being antifogging, being customizable, and/or having other desirable attributes.
