I want to open a store in Hong Kong.

Maybe the mask you wear does not protect you.

In areas where Malaria is common or travelling to areas with Malaris is, it is over the counter.  Just don't take the fish tank stuff ....

How does one acquire hydrochloroquine "just in case"? Isn't it prescription medication? Is it sold on street corners by shady people who supply shady buyers?

I would offer you a lesson in statistics, but statistically I think that is a low value proposition.

Fortunately I learned how to wear a respirator so I find my N95 shop respirators leave my nose and throat dust free.  If I am working with anything nastier, the N100 painting respirator comes out. It's essentially  a gas mask with particulate filter.

N95 by the way does not filter virus either. The situation really is like I said, trying to stop a mosquito with a chain link fence. That a mask works at all is based on the idea the virus is never just out there by itself, but is hitching a ride on a droplet. The problem with that being droplets go down to vapor, goes down to molecules.  

Anyone who has worked in a shop as I have, worn respirators as I have, will know perfectly well how your nose and throat gets plenty of dust. This is with filters many orders of magnitude better than the masks we are being forced to wear.  

This is a political crisis because of people like miller carbon plain and simple. Otherwise it would just be a health crisis.

I was thinking of suburbs of Seattle. Not that I am familiar with malaria situation there.
