      Have you collected your white reusable masks?
      collected new set of masks on first day.
      at the rate we use and wash daily, I wonder how many masks would be sufficient to last us.

          White masks turning yellow is my only concern for using these free masks.

          Is white cloth the cheapest? I would be very happy if the free masks are dark coloured.

            Mine seem OK, but maybe I haven't used them that much. The latest batch has colour choices, but I think you have to pay.

              These free masks, is it better than the disposable ones?

                Collected mine today. It’s identical to the previous batch.


                Mine haven’t turned yellow, but I have seen people wearing yellowed ones. Maybe try sunning them under the hot afternoon sun? I like to do that since the UV rays kill viruses anyway.

                I find this version the most breathable among all the different types. It also absorbs sweat well, compared to the disposable type.

                Nowadays with disposable freely available, we tend to use those when I don’t have time to keep handwashing & sunning the masks every few days.

                  Cant take it lightly. No illegal freshmen party and do follow guidelines. Many already been affected by the virus such as studying locally even though they have secured places in overseas Us. We hope our students do not follow their overseas peers and indulging in illegal activities that may spread the virus in our schools and greater community.

                    One more fatality and we have 28 deceased from COVID-19 now. The fight is far from over even with low and at times, zero community cases. Interestingly POTUS seem recovering very well from the virus, despite being in the vulnerable group. Not sure how much our 3 recovered patients contributed to his recovery with their antibodies. However, it show that potentially we can fight the virus better. The experiment treatment was only carried out on POTUS and the results are extremely encouraging. Hopefully the drug can clear FDA and other relevant authorities fast and the masses can benefit from it.

                      On one hand am happy our new cases are low. On the other hand, I know complacency would set in and who knows, what would happen next as we can see from our other countries.

                        I think need to continue to be prudent in :
                        wear mask all the time helps
                        Social distance should still be in place
                        Limit reasonable number crowds in event
                        Practice hand washing n use of sanitizer diligently
                        Limit number of people in gathering
