Damn useful with the pandemia, for it protects well enough against airborne projections

But man does it get hot and sweaty with that bad boy on
You also get some dubious side looks

this doesn't do anything against covid-19 btw

only helps preventing the spread of the virus if you have it yourself and wear this

well, it _can_ if you also take every other preventative measure and make sure the mask is fitted properly, but that's like 0.1% of people

It's much more effective to wear latex gloves than to wear this mask as 99% of the bacteria is transferred by hands

I got the FFP1 (dust filtration, used in construction), the government took the FFP2 models (the effective ones, used in health)

I go with what I got, wash my hands and keep my mask on, unlike my room-temperature-IQ copatriots
Hope it protects enough from direct transmission (like the cashier c o o f i n g on you)

Wear latex gloves and make sure to dispose of any clothes you've been wearing in a high-density area for 9 days, as the virus survives for that long on non-living objects

mask literally does nothing for you, don't rely on it

Alright, I'll wash these rags and avoid going out
Much simpler

just dump it into a plastic bag and let it sit for 9 days

wear gloves when doing it and wash your hands afterwards once you've taken them off

only go out when absolutely necessary if you live in a high density area, and do shopping as late or early as possible

If I recall correctly you need at least FFP 2 protection or M2 for Coronavirus. Doctors use them but our medical staff is getting brand new M4 respirators.

you can always get a thread adapter if need be, but it's better to just use a mixed thread filter or get the proper filters for your mask
