TO THOSE WHO STILL WANT TO AVOID COVID:
We’re in a one-way masking world now. Therefore, it’s time to upgrade your respirators. Cloth and surgical masks (and even some KN95s and N95) simply won’t suffice.
Here’s a 🧵 on some of the best masks you can get:

One time a cop pulled me over in CT ‘cause my registration had expired. Without warning he got a tow truck to start towing my car WHILE I WAS STILL IN IT. It dragged me for 20 feet until his partner stopped the truck, unhooked my car, then said “sorry, he’s in a bad mood.”

I’m perfectly content living a COVID-conscious life. Why? Because I’ve accepted the fact that the life we had before the pandemic is never truly coming back.
The urgency of normal being forced upon us is solely for the preservation of capitalism.

The 3M Aura 9205+ is my personal favorite. It’s comfortable, breathable, and boasts a filtration efficiency of over 99% according to some tests. I wear one for almost 12 hours at a time with no issues. You can easily find them at your local Home Depot:

Say you go to a party with your friends. No one masks.
You go about your life for the next few days. Maskless, of course.
You wake up 5 days later with a sore throat. You test positive. You bounce back in a week.
That’s your experience…but it goes far beyond you. 🧵1/10

The VFlex is another favorite. It also boosts a 99% filtration efficiency, and its spacious design covers most of the face pretty nicely. It’s also immensely breathable, and I wear it whenever I’ll be doing any strenuous activities outdoors.

The Harley N95 is also a great option. They’ve protected me from catching COVID when I was exposed multiple times. Their design isn’t exactly the most aesthetically pleasing, but it definitely gets the job done.

Now, before I go on about KN95s, I should point out that some experts are concerned that ear loops don’t afford maximum protection if you’re the only one masking. So, I’ve invested in a Fix the Mask piece that tightens the seal around KN95s and surgicals:

There is a free way of tightening the seal with only 2 rubber bands-I just don’t trust myself enough to get it right, however.

The chance that you could be indirectly responsible for someone’s death or disability, however small, should guide your every decision.
Going maskless at the cinema, grocery store, concert, airplanes, or even at work has consequences. Ones which we aren’t aware of. (6/10)

If you can curtail the chances of the latter by simply wearing a mask, what reason do you have not to?
When you say that you’re “comfortable with the risks,” what you really mean is that you’re at ease with YOUR risk. Who else you may infect isn’t even an afterthought. (8/10)

In terms of KN95s, Powecom is a reliable, trustworthy brand that always scores highly on filtration efficiency. With the Fix the Mask piece, they scored around 99% on one independent test. They also have a model with headbands rather than ear loops.

In at least one of these scenarios, someone’s father, mother, sister, brother, husband, wife, partner, best friend…doesn’t make it.

The day before you felt ill, you dined indoors with a friend. Then you went to the grocery store. Then you met up for drinks at a bar in the evening.

They then spread it to someone who’s immunocompromised. COVID hospitalizes them.
Given the lack of mitigation measures in place, they end up infecting the nurses, who then spread it around the workforce…and, ultimately, to patients in other wards. (3/10)

An honorable mention is WWDoll, which I had been using for a while (and thankfully protected me hitherto).
I only recently stopped due to counterfeit masks, as Amazon is their only retailer in the U.S. Given the times we’re in, it’s not a chance I’m comfortable taking anymore.

I recommend buying straight from the manufacturer website whenever possible. The only plus to buying from Project N95 is that you can be pretty certain that what you get will be authentic. If it’s the only place to find a mask that looks appealing to you, then get it there.

Personally, when searching for a new mask, I like to narrow my options down by perusing the products listed on Project N95 and see how they fare on the tests run by the names I listed above.

Want to-once again-recommend the 3M V-Flex.

Concerning ear loops:
1. A reminder to everyone that earloop respirators are generally not much better than surgical masks. Please upgrade to N95 (or better) and abandon using KN95/KF94 mask (like you gave up bandanas and scarves in 2021)
