I bought a pack of 12 bandanas from Amazon a few weeks ago. They came in about 10days.

There's a convenience store on South Harrells Ferry that sells them. They are price gouging a bit but I think they are about $1 if I'm remembering correctly.

A. because unless this is a "homemade" mask that you can wash regularly, you would potentially be making the situation worse by possibly spreading the virus from one place to another.

And B. because people think the mask is going to keep them from getting that this and it's giving false hope because people are dumb.

And C. Because over half of the people wearing "masks" aren't even wearing them properly.

And D. Just because it is dumb...

I work in manufacturing, the PPE requirements for everyone entering the facility is safety glasses, ear plugs, and Kevlar gloves. ALL of which is provided by the company. There are many areas that require additional PPE, and guess what, they provide it as well.

yeah, your work should be providing. We were told that were getting 5 each whenever we return whenever that is.

I've been using bandanas. I fold them in half in a V shape. Turn the point up about halfway, fold that up and tie them behind my head. I have to untie and retie them two or three times a day. Throw them in my dirty clothes bag when I get home. I had a few before the rona, and bought six from Walmart's online.



Put the quadrupled-up section over your chin and tie behind your head.

Hard to find the N95 models unless you work in the medical field, medical sales field, or some other front line industry right now. My company sent me 4 the other day on the off chance I am called into a hospital.
