And at the same time... I don’t wanna take away from whatever you guys need or want to provide to the hospitals.  I’m low priority in that regard.  

No problem, she’s already made around 500 for the local hospitals and is teaching a few other people how to make them.

Is that the bird flu trial run?

 

@mc52beast

Legit question, can she make some masks featuring Jim Carey's character "The Mask?" I would buy quite a few of those.

Can’t find any material with the mask on it , she said stores do carry fabric in that color.

While I love you and your wife's idea and hustle. I believe for the current pandemic homemade masks like this won't help much if at all. You see when people sneeze they project all that sneeze at such a fast rate that it will still go through the mask. I believe only N95 masks will stop the sneeze from going out and any foreign sneezes from coming in.

sneezing isn't a symptom, but the virus can be spread by when we we sneeze, cough, laugh, talk or breathe. Look it up there are many websites that confirm this. I got my info from the CDC website. 

Are these masked sanctioned by NFL. Paying 12 times the rate for a surgical mask that is a lot if they are knock-offs.

It involves coughs too. When you cough, and have the virus, you still project it outward. Also you can sneeze in spite of it not being a symptom. You'd still be spreading it and making it semi airborne.

The mask she makes is one step below the N95 which is the best. The CDC stated that they seal up to 80%. The only people who are supposed to be using the N95 are medical staff and anyone working around the infected. 
 

And the sneeze really isn’t the issue it’s the cough.

Thanks for your input.

Keep Pounding
