I want to open a store in Hong Kong.

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.

Bringing this back to audio, is there a correlation between conspiracy theorist / anti-maskers and boutique fuse usage? National Inquiring minds want to know.

bluemoodriver,

"Glupson - as long as you know a mask does not protect the wearer at all."

I would not go that far to say "at all". At least, my experience tells me there may be some benefit to wearing a mask. True, I do not have my own CPAP machine to get infected so take my experience with a grain of common sense.
