What the hospitals near us are doing is wearing their standard masks under these. Then when they have to switch rooms, they merely change out the cloth mask and keep the better hospital mask on under it. It saves the ones that work from being single use.
I hope it works although I have serious doubts. These are the things we will only know it retrospect. I still don't understand why they aren't using ethylene oxide sterilization on the masks. It's not like we haven't done that on single use items we ran out of stock on in the past.
Thanks for the explanation.

Sadly they really don't. If you don't know how to work in a fabric mask it can be much worse than nothing. For example you can't speak in them as it reduces their efficacy below 20 minutes. I came to surgery when we were in the process of phasing out fabric drapes and masks because they were ineffective. They can't stop anything even close to .3 microns they merely keep your breath from going straight into the surgical field and once moist they will hold onto contagion, wick it through the mast and spread it as an aerosol when dry.

I do not understand why they are not using Central Supply's ETO sterilization on N95s et al.
I still have 5 Mugges as spares.

We have the technology of Arizona can burn it or bury it. Cuts down on spares.

Good article, thanks.
Last post for a while.

I hope a post of Boris having the virus is not considered Politics.
For the life of me I can't see why there is a desire to ruin this thread by moving it.
It would be hard for politics not to be a part of the conversation.
I'm not going to walk on egg shells.

My mood right now is to say things to dick heads with no empathy like UB.
Individuals that seem to be like Teflon Don's around here.

I've sat together in poker games with native Iraq's that WERE sitting with Native Iranians.
South Koreans and native North Koreans.
Palestinians with Israelies and many other countries.
I was on a 1st name basis with many of them.
I met Bill Gates and could have played poker with him in a low limit game but it did not interest me.
The only way I judge people is by there character and many respected my opinion about people.
From mobsters to Judges I was termed a good guy.
I had plenty of haters, mostly because of my cocky smirk and popularity.
I could tell plenty of stories of how people in those situations act and talk around each other.
I've seen many fights some leading to death some leading to permanent injuries.
The stories I could tell but won't.
When I'm filled with adrenalin I have zero tolerance for cunts on keyboards that never experienced shit in there lives.

I need a break and will focus elsewhere for a while. I don't want to say anything that will have me sent to the farm or paradise although that might be a blessing in disguise.

I really miss Michigan Med Grower and know if he was in this thread he would be adding positive posts while being harassed for price gouging seniors by the trolls.

Never did accept that the last time he was here he was behaving until a dick head went and trolled him on his home page to draw him back into the politics section.

I'm out and hope to see all of you at the 2022 BBQ.

Say what you want I won't respond, I'm fine, just need a break from the low life's.

I know 90+% of you are good people and I'm glad I was able to meet a few.

Be safe! :peace:

I hate to see you go and I understand your reasoning. I too miss Michigan Med Grower and so many others we've lost. Anyway reporting facts about what happened for example, the British PM has tested positive for Covid is a fact vs an opinion piece on what a wanker this or that politician is is emotional rhetoric to further an agenda and what I consider politics.

I could be wrong about it and since I am not a moderator it's not my definition that matters. Stay well and come back when you can.
