Yeah I've got a 3M industrial mask with some P100 Particulate 2097 Filters that will, but it's a real pain in the ass to wear.

We have been wearing "masks" when at stores and such for a couple of weeks now
Nothing fancy: I wear a buff usually. My wife wears a bandana. We bought some nicer masks with filter pockets from a local seamstress who needs work as well but haven't started using those. Main advantage of mask for me: it keeps me from touching my face and biting my nails (awful habit). That's, supposedly, as much a reason for the effectiveness of masks as anything: social/psychological engineering. They change the way you behave and think when in public. So I wear it out. I take it off when I get home and immediately wash my hands to "decontaminate". Then I don't worry about my behavior (biting nails or touching face) again until I go out again wearing the mask. It helps as a mental cue for me to be more aware about interactions outside the house. Oh: and lest you think we are nuts. We are also going on daily hikes and bike rides and pretty much enjoying more time with the family. It's just.. different. |

I've resorted to just using a bandana for the dust issues, wouldn't that be pretty much the same as a cloth mask? |

I think most us realize that CFR wasn’t going to be as high as it was predicted but even 0.4 that is still 4 x as deadly and I think the hospitalization rate is 20% compared to flu 2% ( in the article I read)

The hospital rate would be an order of magnitude lower as well.
