Hello good night to all.

What kind of mask do you use?

Because we are supposed to use the FFP2 or KN95 (these that are white and of Chinese origin), which protect more healthy people when they are autofiltrants, although the price is higher.

Thank you!

For class I wore a FFP2 or KN95, but I was suffocated when speaking and I asked for some in Béjar masks that have recommended several doctors and nurses, they are called NAN300 and although their protection is classified as surgical, their protection is much greater.You can wash up to 5 times (6 uses each, therefore, 8 hours each) and breathe very well.If I simply go out to go around (a rare thing, it seems that I am still confined) or little, I also take a surgical one of the same place, which are also good.It takes a little to arrive, but I assure you that it is worth it and although you cannot choose the design itself (it would be great to be able to choose the ones you like the most) they are generally very well.

I carry two, but not at the same time, to walk through sites or streets where there are not many people the surgical one and when I go to places where there is more agglomeration, such as the super, bars etc ... the FPP2 or KN95 these are the ones that are the ones that are the ones that are the ones that are the ones that are the ones that are theThey have greater protection of all, for you and for others.

Social life?That exists?The truth is that I barely know her ... yes, according to the Board I can be with 28 students in a class but not to gather in person with their parents, it has to be telematic ...

I use fabric with filter.Surgical rarely because little by the beard grows, it begins to chop the face and ends up being worse.And I have a FFP2, without using in its wrapper, in case one day you have to go somewhere "difficult".
Before all this, I did not approach sites with many people or go to the bars, so, neither did my "social life" change.

I always use FFP2 in closed sites and surgical on the street.When I'm going to enter one store I change one for each other.
The difference is that the FFP2 protects the one that carries it while the surgical only to others, but very little to which it takes it.
You look at others, someone unexpected and coughing can always appear on the face ...

Taking into account the spot by aerosols (it is more than demonstrated), I use the FFP2, almost always ...
It is one of the most protects in closed places, to which it takes and others.Surgical protects less.

The most important thing is to carry it well placed: the FFP2 squeeze well the metal strip of the upper part (against the nose) and already ... in terms of surgical the problem is that they have folds on the sides that can create holes whereThey can go out and enter aerosols with the bug.

And when you take it off, nothing to touch the body of the mask, puts on and removes taking the elastic strips.

greetings.

I surgical for everything;Metro, bus, work, exterior, shops, cinemas, theaters ....
I refuse to be held at home;The virus does not die because I stay homeless social.

I don't care to infect me, because at this step or we commit suicide (it is raising the suicides rate exponentially) or we die of hunger (in my neighborhood they have closed to the Chinese and forever).I only see southern and depressed people, older people with serious depressions and desire to die.

Here I use a homemade fabric that we have made and wash them later.Here any type of mask is allowed, even a simple scarf.For premises or visits to doctors I use an op.And avoided using public transport.I'm walking or bike.

The truth is that on the street, practically cases of contagion are not known, which usually occurs in closed premises.Most are by private celebrations or parties.Here is at least the big problem.The young people are fed up, they make parties, they spread, nothing happens to them (most) but infect family and that (some) end badly.

It is true that we are already starting to exhaust us all and now here they will close gyms, restaurants etc.Although they say this time they will leave open stores.We will have to be very patient!Something that is exhausted by the truth

I use Chinese FFP2 that sell in a store next to my house at € 1.60 each.That we are going to do, I had no social life before and now it ended at all but I am clear that I do not want to die or suicide so I do everything I can to protect myself and protect the two people with whom I live.

Ruthbia, if they assure me that it infects me and happened as a bad flu but is already, well, but nobody knows how it will touch him.With a diabetes and more type 1, which is autoimmune, there are already several studies and articles in which the body's immune response to the bug can cause that self -immune response more easily, so I don't care to infect myself.
