California’s FLiRT-fueled COVID surge is continuing to spawn infections at a dizzying rate, with coronavirus levels in wastewater reaching some of the highest levels seen since 2022.
I’ve been taking public transit multiple times a week all summer in LA, and I haven’t had so much as a sniffle. N95s work! If you haven’t been masking now is the perfect time to start.
If I can shill for a moment, 3M Aura masks are my favorite. The bands go around the back of your head instead of hooking onto your ears, and it has a comfortable foam covering over the nose wire.
I’ll endorse the 3M n95s as well. They’re not as comfortable to breathe through as surgeons’ masks or most kn95s, but that’s because they’re filtering well.
If you can’t tolerate the real n95s (lung disease, for example), the kn95s have easier ability to breathe through and still offer a good amount of protection.
