If you are feeling sick and you have to go out, please consider wearing a well-fitting mask -- either N95 or KN94. Research demonstrates that they decrease the transmission of airborne diseases. I know the pandemic wore on us, but if you wear a mask when you think you are contagious, you can help avoid getting your friends, family, colleagues, and community members sick. #Mask #Masking #N95 #KN94 #Flu #Cold

There are LOTS of #airborne pathogens around right now: COVID, mpox, measles, RSV, strep... 😫

So make sure your kids have a supply of good #N95 & #KN94 #respirators in time for the new school year starting soon!

N.B. adds 8 more COVID-19 deaths, test positivity rate hits nearly year-long high | CBC News

New Brunswick reported eight more deaths from COVID-19 Tuesday, raising the pandemic death toll to 856, and the test positivity rate continued to climb, reaching a nearly year-long high.

Why don't the big box stores "that everyone uses", such as #costco and #walmart carry boxes of #n95 #kn95 #KN94 masks?

In fact, despite living in a "metro" area, I'm forced to buy my protection from #covid online.
