Today I went into Rite-Aid to pick-up a prescription. At the entrance that had three big boxes of N95 masks. They were giving three away per person in the household so I picked up six of them.
I was tempted to grab a few extras in case the cats might find them to be useful toy but I didn't do it, I swear!
Anyway, if you have a Rite-Aid where you are located you might check to see if they have any free N95 masks that they are giving to folks.
I'll take any help I can get! I just found out the the nurse I see has COVID and my appt. with her for tomorrow was canceled and rescheduled for the mid-March. Wow! She must be really sick! for her!
I've had the three shots and have avoided this plague fortunately. If you haven't had the shots get them! I had zero side-effects from the Moderna shots FYI.
Please keep our very brave health care workers in your best thoughts, wishes and prayers. We all need these critical humans in our lives. As sick as I am of this COVID crap, I'm truly grateful that I have avoided contracting this awful curse of an illness.
Thank you Rite-Aid and thank you Pres. Biden for getting these N95 masks to We The People!

(20,878 posts)They had hand sanitizer next to them and asked that you use it before touching the masks which are individually wrapped. I think they are for one-time use but at least I know I have the real thing and I thought it was pretty nice that they are free!

My long habit of buying in bulk paid off as I had bought a 100 pack a bit before the pandemic.
