Wearing Masks in Public

S

Guest
So I have CF and live in Southern California.
I ordered a mask when the wildfires hit.
I went online and to find the highest rated / recommended mask.
I ordered it and worked great. I then decided to start wearing it whenever I went into crowded public places. Grocery stores, malls, etc.
I did this for a solid year.
As you know, it's really easy to catch a cold when lame people with colds sneeze and cough on you & don't even attempt to cover their face. I would catch them all the time but this year....nope.
I owe it to these masks.
Please get some for yourself. It is so nice not to be sick, and the price is so reasonable.
Have a great New Year everyone!!!!

N95 Health Care Particulate Respirator and Surgical Mask

NIOSH-certified, unique flat-fold/three panel design, highest level of fluid and splash resistance and reduces wearer's exposure to airborne particles. Bacterial filtration efficiency greater than 99%. Latex free.

The best price I could find was at:
<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.allheart.com/3m1870.html
">http://www.allheart.com/3m1870.html
</a>$21.99 ea (per box of 20)

These masks are not usually carried in stores because there is not a big demand for them, so you have to go to special medical supply stores or websites.

Hi, I tried your link and it only took me to the general site. I tried a search for the mask and came up with nothing. Can you tell me what you looked under?

Someone else posted a link to this site for something before and the same thing happened. Although, I can't recall what it was now.

This is a good mask and we aquired a few from the hospital when Anna was in for rejection. Anna had been using the yellow paper masks and one of the transplant nurses told her that those masks were just for "show", lol . The cheapest I could find was $26.65 for a box of 20 but I haven't ordered them yet as we still have 4. The price you mentioned is way better.

I love my mask. I wear it shopping.

I have stayed health as well so far (knock on wood). Hubby and Kiddo have both had colds/ sore throats and fevers. Me NOTHING!! Kiddo asked for a mask this weekend (he doesn't have CF). Hee Hee... I have created a believer in my son.
