Bookmarked.

Good, hope you have time (about an hour) to make the simple kit. These days it might come in handy!
To: Cascadians
Another bump for our safety.

Thought you might be interested in this.
To: Lion's Cub
Very interested- I'll cross-link it elsewhere. It sounds like what the Israeli's implement....
I wonder how well a modern car, inside a garage, would serve.... might need a cylinder of O2 or compressed air, as the ones I've seem are fairly airtight....

As long as you'll be sealed in a room; why not have one of those HEPA room-sized air filters running? They're recirculating, so won't pull in anything from outside.
Filter size depends on make and model. Many have a cleanable "pre-screen" that one could spray a neutralizing agent on, for added benefit.
Vinegar is a relatively good germ-killer. Peroxide?

You know, Sam's has two large rolls of aluminum foil for really cheap. We could make dozens of hats.

Those of us who dive and have charged air tanks or those of us who have medical oxygen in the home may also provide for positive air pressure in our shelter room.

Is there a civil defense radio station that broadcasts silence in normal circumstances, and broadcasts a warning in emergency?
Isn't there such a thing for tornado watch in some regions?The National Weather Service has radio stations located all across the country. They are the most reliable source of warning information for disasters both natural and man-made.

But has anyone any formula's for how long X number of people can survive in a Y volume of air? Don't have it handy, but I've seen such things- in the meantime, remember bottled air ( SCUBA gear ) and bottled O2 ( welder's supplies, hospital supplies )- but remember also O2 greatly accelerates combustion!
