    And at this point in time N95 and KN95 masks are widely and cheaply available. You can get 3M name brand N95 masks for as little as $2 a mask (and KN95 for significantly less) and with cycling (put in paper bags, have 5-7 paper bags, cycle through them, one a day to give rest periods of at least 5 days to each mask) you can make these masks last through multiple wears. Probably 5-6 at least if not potentially twice that making the cost per day literally cents per day.

    And at that point you’re almost totally protecting yourself given the filtration rate and of course protecting others in the very unlikely chance you get it.
