[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know, that's why I am getting all in person shopping I need done in the next five days, since I have a chronic health condition and all. Have fun not wearing a mask after that![/quote]

N95s are readily available. [/quote]

And I already wear them.

N95s will protect me mostly. If someone coughs right in my face, which has happened pre covid in MoCo, unfortunately the n95 mask doesn't help me 100%. And I have an invisible chronic health condition.

But it's ok. I have accepted that I just won't be able to do what most people do. [/quote]
Yes, it clear that not even an MRI can see your invisible condition, that even the n95 can't help.[/quote]

Come off it. The n95s help significantly, like 90+%. Thing is, they are not fitted N95s like for hospital use, so are usually less effective than hospital use. 
They would help almost 100% if other people wore them. but from this thread you can tell that many people are scared of any masks for unknown reasons. I have an autoimmune condition, with a doctor's diagnosis and lab tests and everything.

[b]My vaccinated friend who had MS wore an N95 mask while teaching in Florida, and none of the kids wore them. She is now dead. [/b]

Like I said, go out and have your maskless fun. But those of us with autoimmune conditions (and other medical conditions) won't be there unless they are freedum fighters. Hopefully you don't have an undiagnosed medical condition you don't know about pp. [/quote]

Come off it and quit spreading misinformation!!
First off not all autoimmune conditions mean you are at higher risk from Covid. Your blanket statements make those of us with these conditions look like whiny snowflakes.

I have had MS for over 25 years. According to all of my docs , including a top neurologist at Georgetown, I am not at higher risk from Covid. 
The risk potentially comes into play depending on your medication. For instance an immune suppressant infusion like Ocrevus means you should get an additional dose or booster and then get on with your life. An immune modulating drug like Copaxone or Aubagio does not put you at higher risk and whether you booster or not depends on other health factors.

Shame on you for using the story of your friends death as evidence of something that is not true. [/quote]
