My friend just told me that someone said to them, “All the HEPAs and masks won’t stop you from getting COVID.”
But, they literally do. Often times, ONE well-fitting respirator does. Getting COVID isn’t magic; it’s from virus getting into your body, often when you breathe it in.
@Phrost I think I can't either-or this one. People brave enough to plant their feet and fight are to be honored; people who take their kids/partners to safety or who simply have no energy left to fight are no less respectable to me.
