Doctors in Lakewood have mentioned that a large amount of people in the US had flu-like symptoms this past season but tested negative for flu. I’ve seen this on the forums a couple of times as well.

Unless you have a beard, why would you not leave the house with an N95?

If you are very very paranoid about catching covid-19, apparently!

Medical personnel have caught COVID despite wearing N95s. They’re not 100% perfect.

1. Nobody wears an N95 all day.
2. The problems when they are worn are coming from reusing N95s.
