There's a reason I want an OmniMask.

~ it's so I can be the coolest doomer at school ~

But also because I want more people to feel comfortable being around me:
both the immunocompromised or carers,
and people who read lips to help with Auditory Processing Disorder, loss of hearing, d/Deafness;
or anyone who just feels more comfortable seeing whole faces.

I definitely don't understand the "I want to see your FACE" people,
but I don't generally set out with the intention of unnerving people
(until they upset me and I've tried conflict resolution skills, but unfortunately haven't fully concluded it. THEN I get ornery!)

@dgentry
Yes yes yes omggg

Can you (theoretically) 3D design / print an off-brand filter case for See Us 95?
Theirs are so dainty they break mid-use, leaving you with one side flopping off while walking about.

Or even just an ergonomic ring shape with smooth hook nubs at the edge for straps to tie or loop onto.

That way, you use any surgical or actual KN99 or FFP3 respirator as the filter.
Then you fit this plastic edge press over it, pressing the (new) seal firmly against your skin.

Tada! Your fit test is now actually likely to pass!

Hey mask respirator covid 19 nerds.

Which is the best for “oh shit bird flu soon probably”?
Like, I think the first one is probably the best balance of “cheap mask and filters, (FF)P3 filter, goggles, doesn’t look too freaky, comparatively.”

"Respirator" means a facemask that seals around the mouth and nose for the purpose of filtering all the air the wearer inhales.

Respirators can be constructed of either:

a) an elastomeric body designed to be reused with replaceable filters, straps, etc

b) an electrostatically-charged fabric designed to be disposable

Most reusable elastomeric respirators (N95, FFP2, FFP3, P100) have exhalation valves, but some don't.

Most disposable fabric respirators (N95, FFP2, FFP3) do not have exhalation valves, but some do.

Did the Cochrane Canada folks really try to downplay the efficacy of respirators compared to baggyblues for an airborne pathogen?

Of course they did. They're *proud* of their intransigence.

“The panel compared evidence on type of mask, the panel notes that during high transmission risk there is a small additional benefit of masking with a respirator (N95/KN95) compared to a medical/surgical mask in community settings.”
