Coronavirus Substitute Products - Let's Get Creative!
N95 masks are in short supply. What about making your own, better than the N95?

I ran across a video recently that made me think. Basically, you take 2 dust masks and in between, you put a piece of furnace filter. Furnace filter has to have a grade of 1900 MPR and a MERV of 13 to 20. Seal with medical tape.

All these items are still readily available in our market in the the USA.

Here is the video on how to do it: [link to www.youtube.com (secure)]

The purpose of this thread is to bring together the great GLP folks and their vast experience and, mostly, great minds.

What are your ideas?

How about natural antivirals too? I thought of this while sipping gingerale while sick. Gingerale made my sore throat feel sooo much better.

Cucurmin (tumeric)
Ginger or gingerale

What about the plastic water jugs over heads like seen at a Canadian airport? Prevents eye nose and mouth contagions. Looks silly but it things get bad no... Have one in case...

I found some cheap dust masks at the local dollar tree.

They are pretty flimsily but they are better than nothing.

For anyone that has a cabin air filter in their vehicle and is uber protective: install a charcoal-coated cabin air filter. It absorbs bacteria and may help with viruses.

In a pinch you could use a bandana. Soaking it in colloidal silver and or thieves oil would definitely increase protection.

Some of the high end 3M masks are coated with silver. Wonder if you could do that with your homemade mask and some colloidal silver?

Absolutely. If you coat a mask with colloidal silver it will increase effectivity. Not sure by how much but it will definitely kill virus particles that come in contact with it

Depends on how often you will be leaving the house. If your plan is to self isolate, then you may not need too many of them...

Good idea here. Was wondering about creative ways to masks, since the ones being sold have a limited useful life and we may have a long way to go.
