N95 Masks Are Selling Out All Over The World As People Everywhere Panic About The Coronavirus Pandemic
IWB ^ | Michael Snyder

I can’t remember ever seeing this much global panic about a virus. The bird flu outbreak that we witnessed a number of years ago definitely shook people up, and the ebola scare received a lot of attention for a short period of time, but this coronavirus pandemic is already on an entirely different level. Despite the fact that there is an impeachment trial happening in Washington right now, this pandemic has dominated headlines day after day, and many experts are warning that what we have seen so far is just the tip of the iceberg. It appears that this virus spreads very, very easily from person to person, and it is nothing like getting the cold or the flu. One leaked video from a hospital in Wuhan, China actually shows a victim “shaking uncontrollably” and “writhing all over”…

A helpless coronavirus victim is seen shaking uncontrollably on a hospital bed in China as the death toll in the county rises to 56.

The disturbing clip, which was uploaded on to Twitter, shows a woman holding the head of the patient as he or she appears to be having a fit under a blanket.

Others surrounding the trolley are wearing protective masks as the victim is seen writhing all over.

The N95 mask passed the fluid resistance test, not stopped the transfer. Flu virus is in the air as a fluid that my or may not be attack to solid. If it is direct like a sneeze or cough directly at you in close proximity, it probably will not stop the transfer as the virus will be still in fluid form and not attached to a solid. The mask stops solids and resists fluids, not stop them.

According to an article by Flu Armor, this respirator has been evaluated and approved by The National Institute of Occupations Safety & Health (NIOSH) and is cleared by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). This product is a N95 Respirator deemed “Surgical” by the FDA. It is not a Surgical Mask. “Surgical N95 Respirators” undergo more rigorous testing and are designed to both prevent the spread of germs and protect the wearer’s respiratory system.

So even though the FDA says it works on viruses, OSHA says it doesn’t. Toss up?

I have a crappy diet, eat food after it falls on the carpet, eat food that is marginally spoiled and smoke little cigars.

My blood is probably toxic to the virus.

Postings on FR that mention EVERY person in the world will be infected.

Is that it? Where is the "panic?"

Are people chewing each others faces off in grocery lines?

if they don't stop the virus then hospitals have deliberately put all of their patients and all of their staff at high danger since all we use for virus are simple thin little disposable masks, the kind you find at the drs waiting room....on time use....

I would advise people to wear masks when in public areas especially if they have a cold or feel sick . masks can protect the mask wearer, but also the rest of us too....

masks stop the larger particles of mucus from coughing and sneezing but do not filter the virus particles themselves
