Hi city of Bozeman,
I am in favor of masks but more than that I am in favor of people wearing n95 masks as much as possible
especially when in crowded gatherings and indoors. I am really quite shocked that these masks are still
unavailable after 5 months and it appears they may never be available to non medical workers for the
forseeable future. From what little information I have gathered the only really solid research on mask
wearing and disease transmission has been done with n95 masks. All other mask wearing effectiveness
appears to be mostly anecdotal, "common sense" or hopeful. Maybe the city of bozeman can find a way
to access n95 masks for the whole community?
Thank you
