My co-worker observed that the two masks laying on my desk at work looked like a bra and she wasn’t wrong. š
It’s such a tough time to be alive. Something that seems like it should be straight forward – buying N95-style masks because you want better protection against Omicron – could have all sorts of issues with sub-standard quality, even if purchased from legitimate retailers. Or the conflicting information that’s out there – for example, if […]
One of the hardest things about the pandemic is trying to keep up with the latest news/developments/theories (and the fact these are ever-changing gives a lot of fuel to anti-vaxxers which is a different discussion.)
