"The coverings need to be at least two or more layers of breathable fabric secured to the head with ties, ear loops or elastic bands," CNN reports.
The Center for Disease Control has issued a new coronavirus order requiring DOUBLE masks to be worn for all forms of public transportation in the United States.
From CNN:
The CDC announced an order late Friday that will require people to wear a face mask while using any form of public transportation, including buses, trains, taxis, airplanes, boats, subways or ride-share vehicles while traveling into, within and out of the US.
The order goes into effect at 11:59 p.m. Monday.
Masks must be worn while waiting, boarding, traveling and disembarking, it said. The coverings need to be at least two or more layers of breathable fabric secured to the head with ties, ear loops or elastic bands — and scarves and bandanas do not count, the order says.
The CDC said it reserves the right to enforce the order through criminal penalties, but it “strongly encourages and anticipates widespread voluntary compliance” and expects support from other federal agencies to implement the order.
I agree. Most masks have 2 layers already. It’s hard to purchase those with only 1 (I’ve managed to).
Since when does the CDC make laws?
Nope, but if I did, the cheesecloth mask wouldn’t be a problem. I can generally plan things to avoid having to run a lot.
One of our younger Gene pool gals will become an RN later this spring.
She has been a dance instructor since she was a teen.
Since then she has been on the high school and college dance teams. In high school, she could play a whole soccer game without a problem.
She loves to hike and is a hunter. She is all ways in great shape. She is working pm shifts at an ICU connected with her nursing program.
She can’t wear the standard N95’s. I offered her my supply, and she said that she comes close to passing out when things get hectic at the ICU and wearing a N95, so no thank you.
ssinime - they are trying to sufficate the elderly - THIS DICTATORSHIP SHIT NEED TO STOP! WHAT IS NEED IS A _ _ _ _!
The GOVT is an illegal criminal enterprise trying to incite SANE, FREEDOM LOVING, TRUE AMERICAN CITIZENS to rebel against this bat-shit crazy as hell bunch evil dictators - so that they can come down on us and wipe us out - the catch 22 is that that is what needs to be done cause they are intent on ruining this country, our lives, freedoms and futures if they aren’t stopped NOW! They are installing a socialistic, fascist, communistic dictatorship while we think we are muted from saving our country and way of life forever! Are we?

Actually, one bra by itself will give you two masks.
Well, goodie for you!
Some people travel hundreds a day a year by train and/or airplane, and understand that even the best planning can be for naught - through no fault of their own.
Connecting flights can get cancelled, trains re-routed - once, a pullman in which I had reserved seats for me and my entire family simply failed to show (cars 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 15 were there - only car 14 was, mysteriously, missing).
In many such cases, you have to be prepared to hustle.

Well, of course. Her Popmposity’s infinite compassion is limited; It is strictly forbidden for the filthy commoners to succeed.
I’ll manage. Not sure why you seem determined to pick a quarrel, but whatever makes you feel good.
But a statement like, "I can generally plan things to avoid having to run a lot" sounds like a passive-aggressive tactic.
LOTS of people have to - through no fault of their own - frequently RUN to catch a connection. In the RAIN. Burdened with a squalling brat and 50 lbs of luggage.
Your statement is about as helpful as that of those people who, in a discussion about TSA indignities, smugly reply, "Well, I haven't flown in 50 years!"
It's not helpful.
Comparable to "What? 'No bread?' Well, I don't see the problem... Let them eat cake!"

Re: 109 - That’s GENIUS!!!
There has to be a market for that!
It was a simple observation, applicable to myself. I’m not interested in whether other people have to run through the rain with various burdens, and I’m not the one who felt the need to bring it up. I don’t care at all whether you think my comments are “helpful”, and you can save the “passive-aggressive” psychobabble for somebody who might be impressed by it.
I thought Fauci just said wearing two Masks doesn’t do anything.
Saw he said the opposite on a Headline that popped up on my iPhone.
Of course, he has been changing his tune for a year.
Only the TRULY virtuous and woke can see my mask.
