If you don't feel safe because of new outbreaks of BA.2 Omicron variants in the U.S. wear a KN95 mask when you feel you need to

 One of the Doctor health experts was saying this today. Because a KN95 mask likely will protect you as well as if people and you were just wearing regular masks instead. why?

Because a KN95 mask filters out 95% of all particulate matter which is much better than most masks do. So, if I have to be indoors anywhere in a public place like in a supermarket or gas station I always wear a KN95 mask for this reason. But, this could also work on a plane or bus or subway or train as well if you want that extra layer of safety. Just because others don't care if they get Omicron doesn't mean that you have to get it too.

So, especially if you are over 45 years old to 65 (which is where it changes from 4% deaths to 21% of all Covid deaths on earth I would wear a KN95 mask for safety. 

If you are above 65 then that's 75% of all Covid deaths on earth have been above 65 years old. So, next to being vaccinated wearing a KN95 mask for your safety and protection in public places is a good idea still for those over 45 years old especially or with health issues to begin with.

I wrote this because court mandated wearing of masks on planes and buses and trains was ended at least temporarily by a Trump Judge in Texas which likely will cause many people who have health issues to die as a direct result nationwide.
