- Our Clean Air Event was a huge success! Recording at youtu.be/eVfbeJ8J8Ww. The takeaway? Breathing clean air is a necessity, and we can use simple tools to provide layered protection from airborne hazards, ranging from COVlD to wildfire smoke. #MaskTogetherColorado #MaskTogetherAmerica 😷 ❤️

- Reposted by Mask Together ColoradoUnder its new leadership — who spread misinformation throughout the pandemic — the FDA announced it will limit all Covid vaccines to adults over 65 and those with certain medical conditions. Covid continues to spread and cause harm. This an anti-science move that will kill more Americans.
- Shave a bit for a better fit! 🪒😷👍 Even a short beard can make an N95 or KN95 significantly less protective. Shaving in the areas where the mask touches your face is an easy fix! 1/3
- N95 and KN95 and KF94 masks can lose 20-30% efficacy from only a 10 mm beard, according to this study: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... 2/3
- If you have a beard, another option for improved fit is to tie a band around your face to compress it. Called the Singh Thattha technique, it is temporary and highly effective (see the explanation here: blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-scienc...) 3/3 #MaskTogetherColorado #MaskTogetherAmerica 😷❤️

- Reposted by Mask Together Colorado“The level of vitriol I receive for mentioning "masks," is deeply upsetting and any bill that discourages or criminalizes masks will only increase these sentiments.” —Charlotte Friend has Chronic Active EBV for 14 years —sharing her deep concerns about Texas anti-mask bills HB3061, SB2595 & SB2876.
- We had so much fun at yesterday's fit testing event! Our fit testers Parent Mishmash and Fiona fit tested all our participants in parallel using two PortaCount machines, which measure how much cleaner the air is inside your mask vs outside.
- It was a beautiful day, and we made the event COVlD-safer by staying outdoors, requiring masks, asking people to stay home if they are sick, and recommending testing before the event. Layered precautions work!
- We played games in the waiting area, fit tested all sorts of masks, and even used SIP valves as probe holes sometimes so participants could use it with a straw to have a refreshing drink afterwards!
- The best part? We came together as a community and helped people find masks with a good fit so they can be confidently protected in this world. We #MaskTogetherColorado and keep each other safe! #MaskTogetherAmerica 😷❤️
