Omicron is airborn. I bought two packs of N95 masks with 20 per box for $29.99 each. The price has come down as more supply is available. Hurry as demand goes up and supply becomes limited.

If you're still wearing a single layer cloth mask 'ditch it,' head of Ontario's science table says

If you are using a single-layer cloth mask to protect yourself from a new COVID-19 variant that is believed to be up to six times as infectious as Delta 'ditch it, full stop.'

Where are they available? I've been using surgical masks, which I believe are close to, but not quite at N-95 levels for filtration.

Online orders are your best bet for the moment.

And what if you bought a shit ton of cloth non-medical masks and don't want to buy N95s? Or (and I know this is a bad example to use on an Escort Review Board) maybe you are poor and can't afford to buy N95s and all you can have is cloth masks? What then?

I really think the only way out of this pandemic is for the virus to continue to mutate into a version of itself that is highly transmissible, but produces symptoms that most resemble the common cold.

There are four other coronavirus out there that cause the common cold; human societies have been around for about 10,000 years; maybe at one point these four other coronaviruses caused pandemics.

How did the 1918 Flu Pandemic end? There wasn't a vaccine available; eventually enough people got infected to create herd immunity and life resumed....unfortunately, a lot of people died along the way.

I have a 3m respirator mask with replaceable P100 rated filters (P just means that the filter is oil proof) , better than the N95 rated masks.
Got it when the pandemic began, I clean the mask with alcohol swabs once a week.

No, you are not crazy. Anyone who believes in a Montreal system would be considered crazy.

Virus DGAF if you’ve already stocked up on lesser masks, nor if you are poor.

Amazon has them at 10 for $35. Saving a few bucks if they're cheaper somewhere else is secondary to me.

Don’t get the ones with the exhalation valve. If you are infected, it lets virus out. Good masks will protect the wearer from other people and vice versa.

I almost ordered a box but a little more reading brought me to the same conclusion.

There are lots of places online selling k95 masks, that are a little more comfortable than the n95, cheaper and should work very well unless you are a hcw in close proximity to. Ovid patients. I ordered 50 the other day.

Careful with buying masks off Amazon, there are a lot of fakes on there and Amazon does NOT do a good job with vetting the products being sold on their market place.

I would suggest looking at Health Canada's approved list for N95 masks and buy from one of those companies.

I was able to get a pack of 10 for $30 including shipping.
