>>...so when covid-19 first hit , they wanted the N95 masks to go to the healthcare workers as there was a shortage -- but now there are plenty of them available. The trick of course is to buy real ones not counterfeit ones. Would of been nice if Fauci had said that from the start ..sure -- but regardless all the peeps I know are aware of this N95 mask importance- meanwhile FoxNews and others continue to spread misinformation.

Here's a recent example of somebody who still wears a cloth mask: https://www.newsmax.com/us/fauci-masks-covid-schools/2021/07/19/id/1029160/

I don't recall seeing any recent image of any of the C19 taskforce or any politician wearing a N95 mask; they all seem to go for cloth masks, despite evidence I posted here months ago that cloth masks actually increase risk for airborne respiratory infection, even in healthcare workers trained in proper sterile technique.

In context, perhaps we can share a wry chuckle at the science symbols on the cloth mask in above image? ;-)

If N95 masks are as readily available as you say, I'd recommend everybody here gets one and tries wearing it for a few hours without touching or adjusting it. Even if you can find one with a valve, there's a reason why so many people prefer cloth masks and it's not Fox News...
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
