“A sewer worker is like a brain surgeon. We’re both specialists.”

Mary Dale Peterson, president of the American Society of Anesthesiologists and chief operating officer at a Corpus Christi, Texas, children’s hospital, said she declined volunteers’ offers to make masks. She said construction and manufacturing industries instead should donate or sell the high-grade masks they have to hospitals.
“It would be only an extremely, extremely last resort that I would have my staff” wear homemade masks, she said. “I really hope it doesn’t get to that point in the U.S.”
But the virus is spreading rapidly and starting to max out health care systems in several cities. If the shortages continue, some hospitals may have little other option.

Ha, I read this as sewers. Like where the toilets Dean. I was like, “What?”
Same here. An army of sewer rats?
“Mary Dale Peterson, president of the American Society of Anesthesiologists and chief operating officer at a Corpus Christi, Texas, children’s hospital, said she declined volunteers’ offers to make masks.”
That’s a dumb decision. She should have taken them, gratefully, and stored them.
Just in case.
How to sterilize them?
Too bad we can’t use “seamstresses” anymore.
Autoclave.
So did I. Is the correct word seamstresses or tailors?
Cloth masks keep the doctors sweat and dripping nose from contaminating the patient.
They can help on the margins, to keep YOU from infecting others if YOU are sick.
Totally inadequate for preventing viruses from getting in.
All those Hipsters will FINALLY start shaving their nasty goats as whiskers don’t make for a good seal.
That’s why WWI Gas Masks brought about the clean shave after the Whiskers of the Civil war.
The word used now is “sewist.”
Don’t forget your post office like most of the district management already has forgotten. Hand sanitizers (there’s no place to wash in the mail truck), masks and gloves are, well, for many stations, non-existent. Cleaning supplies are about the same.
I think so. Not sure. Funny, anyway.
In the oven, 175 degrees for one hour.
So did I. Is the correct word seamstresses or tailors?
Can’t say “seamstress.”
