it seems to me the long form blogs from the lesswrong/rationalist crowd are slightly ahead (by a couple weeks) of twitter in assessing the actual scale or the calamity posed by the new variants and sluggish vaccine roll out, maybe because twitter was distracted by politics & 1/6

I know you guys are working on masks, what about mask sleeves for the better quality masks. @DrEricDing points out that the fact by which the KN95 masks (for example) are better is a way better weapon against the new Covid variants.

I am not sure what you mean by mask sleeves, I assume you mean some kind of additional filter, but this is definitely a nuanced discussion which Twitter lends itself to poorly. I am also not familiar with Dr. Ding so forgive me.

N95 masks were always the best mask option but speaking personally it can still be handled on a risk adjusted basis. For example our Atoms masks filter out 84% of particles above 0.3 microns. For myself who is relatively young and in perfect health, that should be fine.
