Eric Feigl-Ding. (2022, January 13). WATCH📺—Despite 97.5% of all adults in England🏴 with antibodies to #COVID19 (via vax/infection)–hospitalizations still surging. Why? Because variants like #Omicron are adapting. Need multivalent vax, plus ➡️N95 & ventilation are agnostic to variants—Key!

Prof Claire J. Horwell 😷. (2021, December 2). With UK regs changing to mandatory #masks, here’s a short 🧵to answer the question: Can you wear a disposable #facemask more than once? The answer is YES. Many manufacturers state that masks should be disposed of after 8 hours but this is not true. Read on to find out why ... 1/ https://t.co/f9jXCKq3LT [Tweet]. @claire_horwell. https://twitter.com/claire_horwell/status/1466400270137630727

Adam Kucharski. (2022, February 8). Below figure being widely shared (from: Https://cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7106e1.htm), but think it’s important to include uncertainty (i.e. 95% confidence intervals) when reporting estimates: Cloth mask: 56% (-17%-83%) lower odds than no mask Surgical mask: 66% (10%-87%) N95/KN95: 83% (36%-95%) https://t.co/SkPhF7CAJf [Tweet]. @AdamJKucharski. https://twitter.com/AdamJKucharski/status/1490946644837543938

If I were wearing an N95 just for the weekly grocery store run, I’d probably be fine with alternating two carefully handled masks for many months as long as the elastic works and there’s no soiling. That’s not a lot of use! But if I were wearing one all day, every workday, I’d consider having one for each day and replacing them maybe every month. So that’s about five per month. Could one be really careful and make that two months? Probably.
Guidance on how long masks could potentially be worn and used/reused.
