Condolences on your loss, Hebime. I feel at least some of your pain, as my grandmother became an official COVID-19 fatality last week.
I was already sensitive about folks handwaving it all away with "But only old and sick people die from it so it's really no different from the flu." Now I border on raging out when I hear it. Yeah. Old and sick people die from it. I have a good number of older and "pre-existing condition" people that I'm related to and/or care about. And every time someone brings that up it sounds like them saying their lives don't matter as long as someone else doesn't get inconvenienced. And we're not even to the worst of it yet.

Such sad and scary news, my deepest condolences to all who have lost friends and loved ones from this. Please stay safe guys.
On a side note be careful if buying masks and filters. I have been finding a lot of crazy prices. This is just the one example of the filters that I use, the worst thing is they are all expired product by one to two years. I'm not sure how much that affects the product but at that price is it really worth taking the chance? I'm just thankful I always keep some stock on hand. Again, stay safe tankers.

Last summer I bought a box of 3M N95 masks for use during my travel trailer restoration. I used two out of the 20... I donated the rest to my local hospital. She said they had enough for now... but that could easily change and was super grateful for the donation.
As the news stands today, we might need to wear some sort of face protection when going out in public. I'm going to start looking into some washable, non-medical masks since I don't want to take anything away from those fighting the battle by buying medical ones. Honestly guys, my biggest fear is I'm not healthy enough to survive if I get this. Luckily I have a bunch of life insurance so my wife won't be left financially devastated.

Remember that you have to be fitted for an N95 mask. Don't know if buying online is the way to go as it may not fit right, and will not provide the protection you may be looking for. Plus, you are using up the stock that could be used in the hospitals where it's truly needed.

It's funny to watch everyone at my work though... one lady complained endlessly about getting masks, so they finally gave her one, she wore it for 4 hours then complained they were uncomfortable. One lady only covers her mouth with it, leaving her nose exposed. And they all still sit, elbow to elbow, in the breakroom, no masks, eating and laughing and coughing.
