As the country has reopened and cases are on the rise in many states, President Trump and the CDC strongly recommend that everyone wear a mask when leaving home.
Some cities and states now require that you must wear a mask, even in your own backyard!
But, tying a scarf around your face or wearing a cheap surgical mask a) doesn’t work as well b) it’s hot and uncomfortable.
Also, most homemade masks have a significant “leak” around the nose and under the mouth.
Fortunately, 95% filtered and comfortable masks are guaranteed.
As we navigate these uncertain times, there is a lot of confusing information.
Many things are changing minute by minute:
-
Stats and predictions that leave us reeling
-
Constantly Evolving Science
-
Recommendations for public health may be inconsistent
-
A constant stream of “fake news” flooding

Does your hand washing technique leave you vulnerable to illness or worse?
I think you’re wondering why you didn’t start doing this weeks ago …
