Many of us who have been going to casinos for a long time have far more logo T Shirts than we are ever going to wear.

Today a video was posted on Good Morning America about making clean T Shirts into face masks. The only tool it requires is a pair of scissors.

I don't have a link, but if you Google or Bing "Have a Clean T Shirt to Spare?", I'm sure you'll find it.

I, for one, will be making a supply.

Single ply cotton t-shirt masks may capture 50%-60% of .02 micron particles. 35%-45% less effective than an N95 mask. Face seal is quite a bit lower on home made masks and more so if a person has a beard.

But if it makes a person feel more comfortable then do it. I personally will stick to social distancing, hand washing and just plain being smart. You cannot let your guard down with this virus at all.

I'm with you Ted. Well at least within 6 feet.

I agree social distancing is the best way to go. I make face masks and will wear them when going to get essentials as a double measure of safe guarding myself. Living in a Senior community I want to make sure that I am doing my best to keep not only my husband but all our residents safe. I pray that things will settle down soon and my prayers go out to everyone . BE SAFE MY VP FRIENDS

I am staying home but am keeping my distance when I have to go out. Wearing a mask may not stop you from getting the virus but if there is a slight chance that it will help, I say wear one.

Surgical masks protect the patient from the surgeon. Similarly, wearing a mask in public will help to protect others from you in the event that you have the virus and dont know it yet.

Wearing these items could provide a small amount of protection for those wearing them, but without the proper training, most civilians end up touching their face while wearing gloves, thereby rendering them useless and in a similar way, they end up touching and adjusting their masks far too often.

The worst problem is a false sense of security which causes some wearers to be less careful about physical distancing.
