Mask fit question: I have a very narrow bony nose and it's very difficult to get a good seal right at the angle where my nose meets my face. I have some KN95s that fit v well but even they have a small but noticeable air leak there. Is there some trick to getting a good seal there?

I do have a respirator but it'd be nice to have these KN95s as an option for lower-risk situations Also I live deep in the chudlands and am vaguely worried about getting shot for wearing even a normal mask in public, let alone a respirator..... lol

You might try something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Self-Adhesiv...9129789&sr=8-15

Which is what I use for KN95s, there are a bunch of options for nose pieces. Also you might get some of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B087TV1R4M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 which are adhesive metal nose pieces to add more support to grip your nose.

They're gonna make it about 1.5 weeks. If you or someone you know has kids in school tell them to get ready for an emergency switch to virtual learning.

I live in Michigan but my county is one of the most pro-Trump counties in any blue state (Macomb Co.). I expect my school district to wade through a sea of student blood before they switch back to virtual.

The district hedged it's bets by having everyone keep their tablets and laptops, but the district is so full of chuds that they'll watch their children die before allowing virtual school.

My district at least had a virtual options, many districts in the state aren't even offering that.

so do we have to put masks on before we get a booster or ?

When I was getting my booster, the only unmasked guy was some white boomer dude who came inside to get a prescription of ibuprofen with a $4 copay

Risking death and killing others to get an OTC medication paid for by your health insurance policy when grabbing a bottle off the shelf would have been cheaper made my head kind of explode

And then he grabbed a shopping cart and started endlessly browsing the aisles

Just total obliviousness

MA ivory tower is shook. two mandatory tests per week, voluntary mask usage is >50% despite everyone being vaxed and I'm certain we'll all be lined up for boosters in the next few weeks

I'm actually feeling kinda good about school starting here in Oregon, masks are mandatory and my kids start September 13th, which means we have enough ramp up time to watch the rest of the country monumentally gently caress things up and potentially force remote learning. Parents in my kids' class group are posting things like "everyone is hoping for a regular schedule" and "I just hope the schools do stay open!" but I think that comes from them convincing themselves things won't revert to remote learning. The struggle for child care and having to work is a very real concern and not easy.
