I Noticed People Using Masks To Protect Themselves From Viruses All Wrong, So I Created These Infocomics To Explain How To Use Them Properly

Conversely, do not stigmatize people who are wearing a mask but are not sick. a) I have an N95 wrap around mask (earhooks and velcro etc) that I use when riding in the city. b) I bought this mask and spare filters about a year ago and still have filters. c) I am not "wasting masks" by wearing it. d) I am also successfully not touching my nose and mouth when wearing it. While 'surgical masks' which are basically mouth covers are not of any use to a healthy person, a properly worn N95 mask is still worthwhile and not something I plan to give away my only one of. Also, if you *are* sick, don't wear an N95 mask with open return valves, because it completely defeats the purpose of wearing a mask.
