If I felt I needed to wear one 3M would be the way to go Hivis have them I think.


The ones I had were unbranded and probably from China. I expect they cost a lot less than the 3M version.
BUT unless you are part of a high risk team, they are what the NHS are dishing out.
I'm actually quite cross about this.
If we want to do proper PPE, fine, but don't pretend that what is on offer is any better than the "Duck and Cover" mantra of the 1960s when nuclear war was a prospect.

I couldn't agree more, when I watched the NHS staff wearing those apologies of masks in the early days of this thing I just felt great anger knowing exactly how careful you have to be with this type of disease. We all had to go and be fitted for the positive fed full face masks and a lot of instruction on the necessity of fitting the 3M to avoid risks.

You either take a professional approach to the subject or don't bother, the half arsed approach will reap a similar result and shouldn't come as a surprise, it is consistent with Doris's approach to Cummings - don't fire him just jog along and hope it goes away because Joe public is stupid such is the elitist arrogant attitude of the governing party.
