@Snoopp, okay, thanks! My BFF made me 6 masks but I didn't know if there was something special about the masks on Etsy. I was going to jump on the bandwagon, LOL!!

I won't wear one until someone can convince me they do any good. I heard a doctor say wearing anything other than the N95 mask, is like trying to stop a flooding dam with a chain link fence. Compared to bacteria, the holes in fabric are huge.

The CDC says up to 25% of people can be carriers and will never have symptoms. Any sniffle, blowing the nose, surprise sneeze, cough, or even talking, can release a drop of spittle into the air. Masks may not completely protect you but they do help to stop carriers from infecting others. Why would you take a chance of infecting, and possibly killing, someone?

Masks don't protect you 100% but they do help you keep from infecting others. It's not all about me.

DH and I went to our local hospital yesterday and all nurses had on handmade masks.

My sister works in a hospital on several floors including the covid-19 section. The hospital refused to provide masks to employees because their supply is so low. They have to work without one or bring their own.
