      Was chatting with someone today and having the same conversation that we have had a couple of times now. Pretty much a definition of why we are a big fail.

      They will have to have a vaccine soon.... no they won't have one soon.... So is the only answer is to allow it to run through the population?... no, they don't know that we can get lasting immunity.... That's so far off though!... yep but that is reality.... but people will come unglued!

      Like that is supposed to mean we can switch the game off because people are tired of playing.
      Worked for Donnie.

      Bored now.
      What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

I’ve also heard ideas like running a bead of silicone around the edges can help make a more effective seal on homemade ones. Ymmv.
        I would suggest against copper and find stainless steel. Copper will corrode, especially when washed a lot- just like your copper pots and pans. Firm stainless wire is pretty easy to find.

        (also, apparently high thread count fabric is really good, too- which is commonly seen for quilting materials. I used high thread count pillowcases)

          Money over the health of your employees.
          Musk proving his point by defying orders and opening his plants in CA. Nice. I'm sure when someone gets sick, we will never hear about it. Not that my opinion of him could get much lower.... But willing to sacrifice your employees is pretty low.

            why just picking on americans?

            koreans tried to go back. jhina too. spanish and germans are trying.
            humans are looking to return to life. and sure, some will lose it

            but this is certainly NOT something americans carry themselves

                  Is that tweet about GOP leadership?

                  Because if it’s about the voters themselves, those are the bluest cities in almost all of those states.

                              Best materials I’ve seen for homemade are 10-12 oz (or more) denim. Women’s jeans rarely hit that nowadays. Two layers of that with a sandwiched layer of several passes of chiffon or silk. Flannel is also somewhat effective. Theory is that the thick weave of the denim is more of a mechanical filter to catch the water droplets and the silk or chiffon are an electrostatic layer that will catch smaller particles. That said, almost all of the most effective materials are non-woven, so... 🤷🏼*♂️

                              As for other inner filters.... Do not under any circumstances use HEPA filters (also many or most vacuum cleaner bags). They all contain fiberglass. Some sites say don’t use furnace filters. I say do your research. Don’t look for reason you can use them, find reasons you can’t and see if you can disprove those. Some brands have lines that are acceptable. Other brands have none. Other brands are entirely ok.

                              Just make sure it fits tight, is washable, covers the entirety of your nose up to the middle of the bridge and down below your chin. Secondary concern is comfort. If it’s not comfortable, you’ll be less likely to use it. Ear savers are a godsend. Being able to secure the mask behind your head and neck as opposed to using your ears is preferable. Stay clean shaven, always.

                              Any gaps, even small ones, will reduce effectiveness dramatically. Make sure you have a means of donning and doffing without touching the mask material, just the ties.

I’ve also heard ideas like running a bead of silicone around the edges can help make a more effective seal on homemade ones. Ymmv.

                              If you think you’ve been exposed to someone, wash your hands very well, remove the mask carefully, wash your hands very well again, don a new mask. Which is another good point, have several. Like at least two or three.

                              If you have surgical masks or respirators, you can wear one, put it in a clean paper bag, and isolate it for five (CDC) to ten (world’s foremost respirator manufacturer) days depending on who you believe. UV, ozone, water, alcohol etc. may degrade your rated mask. I’m not a big fan of disinfecting when time will also do the same, perhaps more effectively, without degrading the materials.

                              And in the end, the masks aren’t for you, they’re for us. So don’t be a ****ing dick; wear a mask even if it’s a cut up white kitchen towel.
                              As a follow up to this, does anyone know if we're close to being able to buy N95's again? The ones I have are getting pretty beat up. I've got some non N95 masks, but obviously they aren't super effective.

                                BTW, it's interesting that the bar is SO low that just doing the bare minimum required is apparently to be celebrated. Talk about giving a trophy to every kid.
