Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

I don’t think it reduces breathing capacity as it’s full of gaps.
It just gets moist and damp and you end up wearing a bacteria ridden rag rubbing all over your face.
You could wear a buff/snood with a panty liner that you could change out which was recommended...

I saw a similar argument and a professor of public health who I think wrote an article for a running mag explained she does and recommends putting a panty liner over her face when passing people . :ROFLMAO: It was at that point I thought these “experts” are off their head.

I’ll take a look at the WHO guidance but that’s subject to change if they get rubbed the right way.

It’s not crazy. It is similar to the disposable paper filter used in cloth masks. Personally, I’d do the paper filter but I don’t have any of the others handy.

Come on now Hogie, you know darned well that your politicising goes well beyond posting a news link.

Actually I don’t if the news link has political content and in many circumstances it is not what I post but what others choose to read between the lines. See for instance responses of some to my simply quoting the words of a certain Mr Shapps a few days ago when he stated the government position on holidays this year.

I’d prefer holding my breath and blowing my cheeks up like a puffer fish to accentuate to passers by. Would look and feel more sane than a Tena Lady.
The Professor could of recommended the paper filter you mentioned though instead of a sanitary towel.
 
Day 1 post first jab

Feel ok just like I been for a 5 mile bike ride when it's been years.. know what I mean? Proper ache

That's it

Disappointed that my 5G service hasn't improved.. I will be contacting Mr gates

Well, it isn't a great look to those who recognise what the item is, although many won't. Perhaps the Professor is more concerned about the harmful effects of Covid, and she might not be wrong in that assessment.
 
For those who have had the vaccine, what proof of id was needed when you attended for your appt?
Getting conflicting advice between Local GP doing it and Centralised location.

That’s overkill. ;-)
They took my name, I pointed at it on the list as they didn’t immediately find it. Done!

I guess, it differs. I took my text message and passport just in case.
