  • It also depends a lot on the shape and size of your face and head, so what works best for me might not work so well for you.

    If you want to be more certain of the fit of your respirator, this video outlines in detail how to do a fit test using a solution made from commonly available saccharin sweeteners (make sure you use saccharin and not a different artificial sweetener, bitter fit testing solution can also easily be purchased online as an alternative).

    The process itself isn't too difficult, and the required equipment (a device to aerosolize the solution and a hood to concentrate it in the air around your head) is easy to find and inexpensive.


  • IIRC N95s shaped like the Aura fit a larger variety of faces than rigid cup shaped ones like the one you posted. They're also usually more comfortable. It might be worth it for you to try some other respirators if the ones you have are painful in some situations.

    Aaron Collins (known as the mask nerd) is a great resource for in depth information on masks if you want to know more.

    It's actually worse, I think he's telling a black man that the police killings that led to BLM were "tragic inadvertent loss of life". pit
