Note, though, that the mask is no protection either, unless it is an N95 or similar. ������*♂️

Just a reminder... It is about viral load. When people wear a mask even if it is not an N95 if it has at least 2 layers like the lighter weight "procedure mask" it helps cut down on the viral load. Better to wear a lighter mask that covers your nose and mouth than to wear a KN95 and wear it under your nose because you can't breathe. If your nose or mouth is exposed then what ever viral load is out there is going directly up your nose or mouth.

And everybody does remember that the requirement for wearing of the mask is for the protection of others......right?

If one wants protection of self, N95 or better is required.

As background, I’ve been vaccinated and boosted and will get whatever is recommended in the future. However, I don’t want to be a germaphobe and afraid to live my life. I want to live maskless in reasonable situations, i.e., shopping, dining, etc. My personal belief is being exposed to viruses and bacteria is part of life and generally strengthens my immune system, which doesn’t mean I’ll never be sick again. I will be sick again someday, but, hopefully, because of how I’ve prepared by body, I won’t be seriously ill (from viruses and/or bacteria). Just my way of trying to use common sense in this not common situation and live “normally”.

Eat and breath just fine. Hi Ho Silver. Away.

Seriously, any coverage is better than no coverage. And, like a screen on a window, restricts air flow in both directions.

Will you ever feel comfortable dining with unmasked and potentially un vaxinated strangers...my hunch is no

[Djean1981]

I do...

Can't find the $$$? Any help?

[Djean1981]

The Chef Studio breakfast buffet is $18 per person.

Augustine’s 1812 House in Spanish Springs is only $8 per person (breakfast buffet)...
