6. In the beginning, when masks were scarce, I found KN95 masks at my local gas station!

They now also have N95 masks, but they aren't inexpensive, and those are the ones I've stuck with. But I'm not going to dispose of a mask that I use for 5 minutes when I go in to pay for gas. I guess I've got to take a closer look at the ones I'm currently using. And I am an obsessive hand washer. Thanks!
