Got some cool new respirators from WellBefore. Normally the shipping cost to the UK isn't worth it, but they had a great mix-and-match deal, so I forked out. More detailed review to follow.

Does anyone know a good place I can get KN95 masks (preferably with a valve)?

I'd prefer colorful - either multiple colors or a solid color that's not any version of black or white) but black is fine. Not solid white.

I need recommendations please!

Shoutout to masks! I’m a university student with a mild immune deficiency and my KN95s are one of the reasons I can go to class regularly! I wish more of the people around me would mask up for flu season, but I still definitely get sick less often when I wear a mask. And if I have symptoms that aren’t bad enough to keep me home (ex: I currently have a bit of a cough), I don’t have to worry about spreading my germs to other people when I go out. Plus, they keep my face warm in the winter.

Mask positivity ask!

saw discourse about masking today so I put together a little summary of most of the important things people are no longer being informed about since our governments decided to prioritise the mythical beast that is the economy over the population’s actual physical health

some other things I forgot to include

immunity to covid via (current) vaccine doesn’t last forever and neither does immunity via infection, there are multiple variants circulating at any given time

pathogens do not build up your immune system, they tire it out! and covid has some pretty unique abilities to do this

it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any pre existing conditions, you still have a 10-20% chance of getting long covid PER infection, which means statistically you WILL get long covid after 10 infections

the masks you need are respirator masks - n95s, kn95s or kn99s/kn100s - in the UK you can get these from thefacemaskstore.com or medisave! surgical masks and cloth masks do not protect you from getting covid

ventilation helps but you can still catch covid outdoors, especially in crowds
