Of course she said the “machine is not compatible with respirators,” as she would have to say for liability. She was unable to explain how it might ‘hurt the machine,” and that an engineer would need to explain that. I did ask her to send the idea/question up the chain, and emphasized ti could be very good for the company if it could be done. reuse-of-disposable-medical-masks-during-flu-pandemic-not-recommended-reusing-respirators-is-complicated <https://www.nationalacademies.org/news/2006/04/reuse-of-disposable-medical-masks-during-flu-pandemic-not-recommended-reusing-respirators-is-complicated> PMC5432778 <https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5432778/> this research appears to be commercially sponsored (conflict of interest) [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 5011 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] only message in thread
