I bought the tool secondhand somewhere in #Edmonton, #Alberta sometime shortly after the beginning of the #covid19 #pandemic, as one of many quasi-random #tools and #materials I would end up testing and using to create my own masks that would be safe for me to wear for long periods and provide the best degree of homemade #PPE protection I could manage whilst also avoiding problems with #allergies (such as metal on nose-fittings).

#OTD March 29 2020, two weeks after the province was locked down for the Covid pandemic, i took one of the few selfies that i don't dislike

has anything changed in the last six years? well, i'm a few years older, i'm still going for walks, and Covid still isn't over

Trying to remember the last time husband and I were sick with anything, other than temporary vaccine side effects (and one time we got sick from duck eggs, either poorly cooked or a previously unknown allergy).

Why wouldn’t people prefer not to get sick? Wearing a respirator is so easy to do.

Au passage, le covid c'est pas fini, d'où le masque FFP2
#CovidIsNotOver #MaskUp #AutodéfenseSanitaire
Avec un modèle de masque qui vous va bien (parfois, j'entends "les masques, je n'y arrive pas", mais ça peut très bien n'être dû à qu'à un modèle de masque de mauvaise qualité ou inadapté à la forme du visage de la personne) et en buvant régulièrement si vous le portez longtemps (le masque déshydrate un peu).

Vous avez déjà pu voir notre mascotte : une perruche violette (à Montpellier, on a des volées de perruches sauvages, en général vertes et quelques unes bleues).

Elle n'a pas encore de nom : suggérez-en ! On lancera un tournoi quand on en aura assez pour choisir  

Et si jamais faire du fanart vous botte, faites-vous plaisir !!

COVID‑19 variant BA.3.2 is spreading quickly across US...

"There’s no sign so far that BA.3.2, nicknamed Cicada, is any more dangerous or causes more severe disease than the variants that were circulating in the winter of 2025-26. But because it’s significantly different from them, 👉 the current COVID-19 vaccine may not be as effective against it." 👈

COVID-19 variant BA.3.2 is spreading quickly across US – a doctor explains what you need to know

The current COVID-19 vaccine does not match the strain that’s now becoming dominant in the US, which could lead to a rise in COVID-19 cases.

タイムリミットがある以上これが最後のデモの機会だろう。このデモで内閣総辞職からのナフサ輸入再開がなければ、あとは死者の山だ。
