Two ways to be a better person and protect your brain today:
1. Wear an N95 respirator in public.
2. Don't lie. Or if you must lie, don't lie right next to a photo that contradicts your lie.

I've considered a modified CPAP to keep the filter portion out of the dentist's way, with an added check valve, so I wouldn't be breathing my own exhalations. One might need to put a whisk ball inside the ReadiMask to keep it from collapsing.
I started assuming a Respironics Dreamwisp CPAP nose mask, as I like the way it routes the airhoses around the face out of the way. The "fit-pack" is pretty spendy, though. Probably cheaper ways to do this?

@brainwane Would you or anyone know where I can get a "MR Safe" N95/FFP3 in the United States? I have an upcoming MRI and don't feel that a standard surgical mask is sufficiently safe.

Found only 2 safe and I can't find either domestically.
Please boost for reach.

Long COVID is way more common than anyone or any entity is reporting.
This is why I go out of my way to avoid ever being infected.
Wear an N95 or better (mine is P100) in all indoor public spaces and outdoor crowds. Don't take off to eat. COVID lingers in air, can infect you within seconds.
Long COVID is blood clots all throughout the body, brain damage, heart damage, immune system destruction, and a plethora of other effects.
