"Hospitals and emergency rooms could be forced to ration care by the end of this month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned Thursday, saying recent trends in COVID-19 and influenza are now on track to again strain America's health care system. The new COVID variant JN.1 is making up an increasing share of cases, the CDC's tracking shows."

One of the things I really love about Dropout is when we see behind the scenes or the crew, because they show the crew and everyone else still masking (with kn95's!)

Ally also mentioned being able to get tests from dropout too.

I'm don't know a lot about the entertainment industry so I don't know how normal that is for other productions, but I see Dropout showing it when I don't see it from others.

Mask up friends, there's a pandemic on and we live in a surveillance state

Guys I need more pretty masks. Over time my family kinda stopped masking and so we ended up losing most of them but I wanna start masking at work again because I feel like. Supremely unsafe with all the coughing and sneezing. Anyone have any recommendations that I can look at when I get home?

And like. I know it’s kinda shitty I stopped masking in the first place, if we could not point that out please I would be forever grateful

(I have my reasons but again, I recognise it’s shitty)

Naomi Campbell's flight routine BEFORE 2020: https://youtu.be/b-U_jT9qWvs?t=261

Because:

"No matter what plane you take, private or commercial, as the plane descends people start coughing and sneezing, and the coughing and sneezing makes me... I just can't, so, this is my protection from peoples' coughing and sneezing. As much as I travel, I should get sick so much more with colds and stuff, and I'm blessed that I don't. And I really think this helps me."

These days she's wearing a KN95:

:) love to see it

need help finding masks!

hi friends!

I live in Ontario, Canada and I am trying to find KN95 OR N95 masks that are safe and I can afford. I work with the general public and I do NOT want myself or my family sick. I’m scared shitless and need some help.

Here's a link to some good KN95s for kids.

This is why KN95s are still important. Covid is still here and droplets go through cloth masks.

The other most important thing next to masks is ventilation. Droplets can linger like smoke. Open windows, get or make hepa 3 filters I need to refind that post that showed someone making some for a dance school)

How does a KN95 mask achieve its high filtration efficiency?

In the ongoing battle against airborne contaminants, KN95 masks stand tall as guardians of respiratory health. But what makes them so effective in filtering out harmful particles? Let's delve into the ingenious design elements that make KN95 masks a frontline defense.

Multiple Layers, Maximum Protection: At the heart of a KN95 mask lies a multilayered structure, meticulously crafted to trap even the tiniest of particles. Typically, these masks consist of four layers, each serving a specific purpose in the filtration process.

Spunbond Non-Woven Fabric: The outermost layer, often made of spunbond non-woven fabric, acts as a barrier against large droplets and splashes. This hydrophobic layer repels moisture, ensuring that external contaminants do not penetrate the mask.

Melt-Blown Fabric: Moving inward, the next layer comprises melt-blown fabric—a key component responsible for the mask's exceptional filtration efficiency. Through a process of extrusion and stretching, this layer forms a dense web of microscopic fibers, creating a labyrinthine network that captures particles as they attempt to pass through.

Electrostatic Charge: What sets KN95 masks apart is the electrostatic charge infused within the melt-blown fabric. This charge acts as a powerful magnet, attracting and trapping even the smallest airborne particles, including viruses and bacteria. The electrostatic effect enhances filtration efficiency, making KN95 masks highly effective in filtering out contaminants.

Hot Air Cotton Layer: Beneath the melt-blown fabric lies a hot air cotton layer, designed to provide structure and durability to the mask while also offering additional filtration. This layer further enhances breathability, ensuring comfort even during extended wear.

Skin-Friendly Inner Layer: The innermost layer, in direct contact with the wearer's skin, is crafted from soft, skin-friendly fabric. This ensures comfort and reduces irritation, allowing users to wear the mask for extended periods without discomfort.

Tight-Fitting Seal: Beyond its layered construction, the effectiveness of a KN95 mask hinges on its ability to form a tight-fitting seal around the wearer's face. A snug fit minimizes leakage, ensuring that air passes through the filtration layers rather than bypassing them. This seal is often achieved through the use of adjustable nose clips and elastic ear loops, providing a customized fit for optimal protection.

Certification and Standards: Crucially, KN95 masks undergo rigorous testing and certification to meet stringent standards set by regulatory bodies. These standards ensure that the masks deliver the level of filtration efficiency and breathability required for effective respiratory protection. When purchasing KN95 masks, it's essential to look for certifications from reputable organizations, such as the FDA or CE.

Particle Size Efficiency: KN95 masks are specifically designed to filter out particles with a diameter of 0.3 microns or larger. This includes a wide range of contaminants, including dust, pollen, mold spores, and most importantly, respiratory droplets carrying viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. The combination of mechanical filtration and electrostatic attraction ensures high particle capture efficiency, offering robust protection against airborne pathogens.

Versatility and Reusability: Unlike disposable masks, KN95 masks are often reusable, provided they are properly cared for and maintained. This makes them not only cost-effective but also environmentally friendly. Regular cleaning and disinfection help preserve the integrity of the filtration layers, ensuring consistent performance over multiple uses.

In conclusion, the exceptional filtration efficiency of KN95 masks is a result of meticulous design, incorporating multiple layers of specialized materials and innovative technologies. From spunbond non-woven fabric to electrostatically charged melt-blown layers, each component plays a vital role in trapping airborne contaminants and safeguarding respiratory health. As we navigate through challenging times, KN95 face masks stand as a testament to human ingenuity in the pursuit of safety and well-being.

Stay safe, stay protected with KN95 masks—a shield against unseen threats in the air we breathe.
