There is a problem that I know personally has existed since October 2020 to date.
This morning I was asked to take my N95 mask off and put on a so called surgical mask on when I entered the door of Nottingham's teaching hospital Queens Medical . I rightly refused her instruction.
As an extra to my masks 94.5% efficiency I spray it with zink oxide so will be more efficient. The Israeli's have developed a new idea and use zink oxide embedded material for their new masks that can be washed 50 times.
Their research has found that zink oxide kills viruses within 30 minutes.
There have been many inevitable deaths within the NHS but proving the masks that have been advocated as protective cannot possibly protect as well as a well fitting mask. It is obvious that the folds of the so called surgical mask can be seen to go straight towards the mouth and the nose.
It seems that most people are wearing these inferior masks, predominantly.
There seems to be a lack of attention to detail which seems incredible since the virus has been 'with us' over a year to date.
When will common sense prevail?
Incidentally I do possess a twin filter respirator type mask that is better than 97.4%
efficient but was asked why do I wear such a heavy duty type mask ,by a health worker. I replied because I don't want to catch the virus. I was going for my first injection at that time...... I hope they haven't got that stupid policy in place when I go for my second injection ,Friday.
