Will be saying prayers for your speedy recovery Susie.
This material can be used as a filter equivalent to N95, for anyone making masks. It can be sterilized in the oven, or autoclave. It’s called Halyard H600. Hospitals are using it for reusable masks. My friend made me some to go into my cloth masks. I don’t wear the filter when I’m walking the dog, but I do when I go to peopley places.Last night at work i found out...
-our covid floor is full
-they stopped rapid testing patients as of 1:30 pm yesterday afternoon. I dont know why. Yes its highly inaccurate, but it at least gives you a heads up on some patients.
-we are holding some covid patients (generally healthy) outside of the er on a bench
-unconfirmed patients are being sent to the floors (private room)
I havent received a new n95 mask since march
They are requiring us to wear goggles (new rule as of 1:30pm yesterday). YES PLEASE! They are not giving us goggles. Some nurses are sharing. Wheres my fricken goggles?? I cant even get a new mask.
I feel like we live in a 3rd world country.
Thats the best test. the rapid 30 minute is crapI have a bad head cold and so i went and got tested today to be on the safe side. Gotta wait two days for results...
And head stuff is probably not covid. its all chest stuff. If that makes you feel betterThats the best test. the rapid 30 minute is crap

Well I do have a very phlegmy cough now.And head stuff is probably not covid. its all chest stuff. If that makes you feel better
It’s ok - we have designated Covid 19 testing stations in every town. But the chance of me having it is unlikely. We have not had any community transmissions for almost a month.I am a ct tech, so i only know what I see. maybe one of our nurses here can chime in. If you got tested already, wait for the test. If you feel really sick, you should go to the er or at least call your doctor.
But please, do not just show up to the ER unannounced. Call first and let them know you are coming in with symptoms

It's difficult for the social butterflies - my mum went a bit stir crazy, but luckily we only had a 4 week lockdown. The only other thing to suggest is online gaming - of the more mature kind - scrabble etc?The 3 months of self imposed isolation is really starting to wear my mother down. BCV (before covid-19) she had a strong social network, was volunteering and going to church every Sunday. Now she stays at home and has no one to interact with, except for my aunt (her sister) and uncle, who live next door. My mom spends most of her time on Facebook and I've been trying to come up with alternative ways for her to spend her time.
We video chat at least once a week and yesterday she broke down and started to cry because Facebook is her only social outlet. After a few questions I found out what kind of books she likes to read and have ordered a book for her and will keep ordering books for her monthly for the foreseeable future. The libraries are still closed in the town she lives in.
Any suggestions on ways to make isolation more bearable? I've suggested numerous hobbies but she's not interested in them.
There are many online sources. My friend who made the inserts for me is a biochemist with compromised immune system. Do not wash the fabric, but it can be sterilized in the oven At 165 for 30 minutes.I would like to know how to buy this fabric. I can sew masks
