(41,127 posts)there are millions of warm bodies for Covid mutations to play in and opportunities to develop even more evasive and deadly variants- beyond Delta.
Mask up, and double mask-- use extra protection even if vaccinated.

(57,073 posts)I personally do not alter my behavior because they say to loosen precautions or to not mask up last year when it was obvious that not masking could prove deadly.
Ty! Always in a 3M N-95 when anywhere near others. Outside activities are not safe without masking, per several studies. (See Dr. Ding's tweets!)

(2,962 posts)I have found a good quality blue paper style mask for $1.50 a box. Triple layer. Fifty box count.
I bought several boxes for double masking.
If be wear a cloth mask over that.
Whatever it takes.
Hospitals beds will be hard to find.

This country has been running on a dangerous, for profit, bare- bones hospital and medical care system too long.
For sure there will be a crisis over lack of space, beds and staff esp. if Covid case numbers go up drastically as experts fear.

Sadly, it appears Amazon is out of them already.
I bought 2 boxes of 50 about 2 wks ago for around $35/box.
