Welp, time for me to buy a new mask cause I accidentally tossed my old one out when I replaced my old purse. :|

I thought that you were an anti-masking dude being a misogynist, then I checked your profile

Disposable KF94's are the way to go. I re-use them as safely as I can, because I'm not rich, but then discard them when they become compromised

Ignore the other person who responded to you. They are misinterpreting the report they linked to (I've made about a thousand comments to debunk it at this stage...) Try to take the opportunity to either find a rated disposable mask that you find comfortable/like wearing or a good quality reusable. Wear just whatever mask you can get your hands on over not wearing a mask at all.

Yea no worries, I'll be buying a mask this weekend. Cheers!

Hope you like the new one even more than the old one! (Oh, though now I think of it, another tip would be to get two or three of the same mask so it's easier to always have one freshly washed when you need it!)
