[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Masks from vistaprint and cut filters from material from filti. The colleges will have infected people, I would want a filtered mask in that environment. [/quote]
I just know my ds will forget to remove the filters before throwing the masks in the wash!  Ugh[/quote]

I had the same thought. There’s just no way he is going to remove the filters before washing the masks, if he washes them at all. :-)

Also, the mask protects other people, it does not protect the wearer, filter or not.[/quote]

DP. Not necessarily so. A proper filter (not just a paper towel or tissue) does increase layers and therefore conveys some protection to the wearer.  I have masks with four-layer filter inserts. They are NOT going to shut out all virus, I know. But I wear them if I must go indoors someplace that is high-traffic like a grocery store.

I do understand that "My mask protects you, your mask protects me" and that masks do not protect the wearer ideally. But since many people STILL do not mask at all indoors (jerks), plus we know now that the virus can linger in the air longer than previously thought --  I want filters so I have a least a little more between me and the air in some locations.
