Face Masks and Breathing

[Olgry1]

Good to know you are out and about. I simply meant that with your background, I suspected that by the time we met you would have read everything available on this subject amd asked a lot of guys smarter than I about what to do.

I wanted to add that some of the tests have demonstrated that masks similar to Debbie's are as effective as the 95% bacterial filtration efficiency, surgical masks.

For myself I have decided that social distance whether inside or outside (for me as close to 12 - 13 ‘ as possible per your colleague)
is the most important thing I can do.

Wearing a good tight fitting mask that I can still breathe through adequately is a close second. That is due to my personal difficulty breathing and associated drop in O2 saturation in my blood stream. As you mention Ray a good cloth mask similar to Debbie’s is still very effective against Covid.

As a result I have not read as much about masks as other things related to Covid 19. I have read that one of the drugs that I am on Fenofibrate (or is it Ph not F.) seems to help reduce the likely hood of blood clots in the lungs in Covid 19 patients. It reduces lipids (fat) in the blood stream which reduces possible clotting. This information was from a Doctor in Israel. It was nice to hear good news about Covid that applied to me personally.

I had gotten to the point I did not want to leave the house because of Covid. Finally decided I would do everything I could to keep healthy but to also live and truly enjoy life.
Ray what did you write in another message “time is life” ?
