Masks

[80watts]

Since the medical pandemic started I have isolated at home. Still had to go out shopping for food. I never wore a mask. I did have n-95 mask I used for dust for wood working.
Now that the first wave of infections is slowing down and things reopening up.
I checked on Amazon for masks. There were a variety of masks but nothing clearly defined. I was looking for reuseable/washable mask with possible filter changes.

Any suggestions?
Looking for lower cost replaceable filters.

One of the thing about masks, are the way they have to form fit to the face . Some people have small, medium and large faces. All these seem to be one size fits all.

This is where I bought mine. They are very comfortable and fit pretty good

I do not know if you have a beard, but if you do no point wearing a mask

It seems to me that the wearing of a mask ? is becoming more of a fashion statement then protection.

Was in Save-On-Foods to pick up a prescription yesterday. Lots of surgical 3 plys available and some KN95's behind the pharmacist counter.

There are all sort of new masks coming out including battery powered devices. I have ordered one (for future plane trips for when the company makes me travel again). It has replaceable filters. When it arrives I will post a review if people are interested.

A fashion statement and virtue signalling.

I focus on maintaining my health so my immune system is in the best postition to fight covid, if or when I ever encounter it.

I’ll wear masks in session by request. And I’ll wear one when shopping /entering a property where the shop/property owner requests it. Out of respect for their preference.

I have N95s with valve, work great ,don't steam glasses. I wear it in certain places that people are not good at distancing . Grocery store and hardware store most others are good but I moved to my remote location for now.Also got the Aquarium ones, seem good but hot.

Thanks helps I do a little more research.
Cloth mask are good for how many hours 4? Then change the filter.
The valve idea works for moisture, but CO2 buildup???
