The normal dust masks are no where to be had around here. I've been looking at these. Little more cash but you can clean them. Some of them, have to read data on them before buying.

CV-19 spores are approx 1 micron supposedly, many dust masks are rated for 3 mic. As AZRob said check the rating.
But then something is better than nada.

That's true brokenwave, Im watching the tv now and they are saying to wear a bandana, folded fabric or anything over your face.

This material almost looks like car seat cover material. Are there not any places in town that can sew something up like this and sew a paper towel like filter in it. I know materials are thin there but its a thought.

Upholstery shop, body shop or someone that has a sewing shop/dress maker.

The masks mostly protect the other guy. I wear a mask to protect you and you wear one to protect me.

Any old mask can easily be made. Any mask is better than no mask. Better yet, stay home and you won't need a mask.
