Have they done a fit test?
If not, Iād suggest it to be able to take full advantage of the protection. I was advised to not bother spending the $$ if I wasnāt going to make sure I was wearing them properly as theyāre only marginally better than surgical masks insofar as protecting the wearer.

OT: after the coast is clear and travelling is possible, this is something Iām going to do again, take an architectural tour of America.
They missed Buffalo.If you were to make this tour, Iād take a detour there. You will find some outstanding examples of Frank Loyd Wrightās residential architecture. One of his patrons, John Larkin, owned the Larkin Soap Company. One of its principals was the writer and philosopher, Elbert Hubbard, who later started the Arts and Craft inspired Roycrofters nearby. You can see the influence of the A&C on FLWās work. The red brick of the Larkin building is an example. You can thank Oscar Wild for that innovation but that is a long story and involves intrigue in the UK. Say no moreā¦

We attended a School board meeting the other day. The school board President was an ordained minister of something called the Universal Life Church. A mill for ordination, send them your name and address and I assume a check and they will send you a certificate of ordination.
To make a long story short they alotted a series of 3 min time frames for speakers. There was a fairly large group of some nutty supposed Christians off the deep end who took up most of the slots. Some of the craziest speakers I have heard. Needless to say the antimaskers won the day. I think the schoolboard President invited them to speak. Many of them did not live in the district.

Thereās that old libertarian saying that your freedom to swing your fist ends where my face begins.
Their freedom to spread potentially Covid-bearing aerosol particles also ends where my face begins.
Now when Iām swinging my fist, I can stop it short of someoneās face. But when I exhale, I canāt stop my aerosols from doing the same. Once I breathe them out, either Iām wearing a mask or theyāll be inhaled by nearby people.
So if the only way they can stop their potentially plague-bearing aerosols from reaching my face is by their wearing a mask, then theyād damn well better wear a mask.
