The straight answer is that depends on the mask.  Different types of masks have different levels of filtering depending on the need.  A firefighter wears a sealed mask with oxygen supply.  Painters and other construction workers use respirators that have industry specific filtration and often incorporate an N95 filter.  Despite the widespread demand for wearing a mask in hospitals, clinics, major stores and the constant media bombardment and the fear generated by the CCP virus also known as Covid-19, the use of the most commonly worn masks is comparable to trying to protect yourself from a burn at a bonfire by using a pot holder to shift a burning piece of wood at the edge of the fire.  That pot holder will likely protect your hand but will NOT protect the rest of you from the heat.  To protect yourself from a virus you really need a haz-mat suit supplied with its own sterilized air supply.  Social distancing serves very little, but might have a minimal effect on the spread of a virus.  This has its own down side in exacerbating depression and lack of contact with loved ones.

You might ask then what can I do?  Since a haz-mat suit for everyone is not practical or even available you can do one better.  You can get a chiropractic adjustment.  You can wash your hands.  Often! You can and should cover a cough or sneeze.  People often forget that  a visit to the chiropractor is superb to boost your immunity so that your body can do what it was made to do.  There is nothing as effective as your own defense system in preventing life-threatening invaders.  Chiropractic adjustments have a powerful effect on your nervous system which regulates your bodies immune response.  There are a multitude of herbal substances that can boost the response of your white blood cells, clean out your lymph system and some can even raise your core temp a little.  All of which can help you fight off tiny invaders.  Chiropractors who practice holistic care take all these things into account to give you your best chance of staying healthy in a risky world.  Call today to get your appointment 406-755-1113.
