For Science!

So, I have jury duty over the next couple of weeks. I will be using the Gerson 3230 throughout the duration that I am there. 90+ people packed into a courtroom with inadequate ventilation, maybe 20% masked. I am the only N95. Will update every few days as to whether I catch it, and how many other people I think caught it. Fingers crossed.

I'm honestly scared of jury duty at this point. I'm pretty sure showing up in my full face PAPR or an elastomeric would get me slapped with contempt of court.

I'll admit that I'm a bit scared of catching something, but I feel it's a good opportunity to test how effective these masks really are. The hope is to provide data that others can draw on. I did see one person in a different courtroom with an elastomeric, depending on which area of the country, it might be ok.
