[quote=Anonymous][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.

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.

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]

According to the NIH, MS does not represent a factor of significant increased risk for severe COVID-19 complications and death.

"Currently, these risk factors appear to represent the consequences of MS and patients’ associated comorbidities rather than MS itself. Except for some anti-CD20 therapies, the use of DMT does not seem to be a risk factor for COVID-19 in MS. Therefore, MS and its treatments are most likely not strong risk factors for COVID-19, contrary to what was once thought. Instead, we should start tailoring our risk-models to look at the characteristics of our MS patients individually."[/quote]

Thank you PP for being the voice of reason. As someone with MS I am so sick of all the misinformation on this site. [/quote]
