Vida Face Masks

They were one of the first face masks that we ordered. Vida masks were two layer, cotton, adjustable straps, and came with a filter. We got two - a black one for my husband and a green one for me. Since we walk every morning and wear a mask every time we leave the house, we now have an assortment of Caraa, Denali, surgical blue, and KN95 masks. The activity dictates the type of mask we wear. KN95’s are worn for doctor visits or car appointments; surgical masks in the common areas of our condo; cloth masks with filters for morning walks. After the walk the masks go in a paper bag until washing them in bulk every two weeks. In order to stretch the wash days out, we got four more Vida masks and they arrived yesterday. My husband likes the most neutral colors, so he got the navy and the green/gray; mine are red and pink. These masks fit nicely in that they have a wire for nose adjustment, and fit snugly on the face. I think we are going to be stuck wearing masks for quite some time and thought cloth/filter was better than disposables. The filters last approximately 20 hours. It would be nice if everyone felt the way we did about being safe. In the end you are pretty much on your own anyway so best be prepared. We don’t have much of a choice at our age.
