I honestly feel this is revenue driven and not evidence based practice. As of last month, CDC was calling it a droplet and never before have N95s been needed for droplet precautions. Do you have anything before COVID COL (Join to see) that changed droplet precautions to N95?https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/non-us-settings/overview/index.html https://www.pennmedicine.org/updates/blogs/penn-physician-blog/2020/august/airborne-droplet-debate-article

Revenue driven? For whose pocket’s benefit? >70% of masks are made, assembled, or somehow connected with China.
Focus on the data and less the noise. Read the story properly
As a HCW you know since March 2020 we were to use N95s for direct contact with covid patients We didn’t have enough so we tried to adapt. That guidance has always been there.
Droplets ? It’s been aerosols since I’ve been studying it. That hasn’t changed Google my name and covid

And this is the problem... these masks are not cheap, despite actually being cheap (ask any painter pre-COVID). I am a libertarian generally speaking but this is where GOV needs to subsidize these and make them available to average folk not shelling out big $$$ for this stuff.
