        Here's an article on DIY masks (and their effectiveness) and which fabrics are recommended. Leave the surgical masks for healthcare professionalshttps://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/best-materials-make-diy-face-mask-virus/ …

        Hardware store masks are for painters & contractors, not as sturdy as the ones were sewing.

        It’s so funny how the public get asked to help out when the government can’t get something done. I wonder what will happen when the public really need the governments help. I really like this idea of sewing masks. And everyone helps out. X

        This is not a CDC approved pattern. It will do almost nothing to protect people.

        “Prior to modern disposable masks, washable fabric masks were standard use for hospitals,” said Dawn Rogers, MSN, RN, FNP-C, Patient Safety & Infection Prevention Office in a release to media. “We will be able to sterilize these masks and use them repeatedly as needed."
