Yes it will. Has happened before, and survived challenges before.

Someone please do share a link to a mask that is in stock on amazon right now. Not some perverted looking crap, just a plain mask.


amazon isn't going to have much. However, lots of retailers are retooling to make masks


Etsy has them
Project Pat
Rails Clothing
Inspire Masks
Sanctuary Clothing
Katie May Bridal Masks
Salvage Maria has adult and kid masks
Makwa Studio
Inked Gaming
Meta Gaming Threads
Los Angeles Apparel
Hard Edge Design
Avocado Mattress
Ball and Buck (camo)
Alabama Chanin (made from Texas Cotton)

If you get some from Etsy some might have a pocket for filter inserts. Filters are impossible to find but you can make your own from HVAC filters. Any filtrete 1500 or above will offer some level of virus filtration. HEPA filter vacuum bags can also work. You can even use ZEP brand shop towels. Apparently at a two fold thickness they offer a lot of filtration.

You cold also buy a neck gaiter and triple it up or even a balaclava. I've been using a Buff brand one for the last week and inserted a homemade in the folds while I wait for my reusable ones to come in.

Then there are numerous tutorials about how to make them from two hair ties and a bandanna. You could really use any fabric or material and elastic or cloth ties. Hell I bet you could use an old shirt and some 550 cord. Literally just about anything. If you are going the homemade route the more layers the better (especially when using plain cotton).

Look not all of these are going to be the style you might want. Some are wild, expensive, take a while to ship, or might make you feel silly. But masks are out there if you really want them.

Thank you Harris county. Better late than never. I applaud you for making a sensible decision that I pushed for 3 weeks ago. More counties will follow suit.

I really hope you were born in 91 and that's not your graduation year. I'd hate to think a 50 year old could still be such a sniveling, scared, little child.

I live in Williamson Co. We have 600,000 residents. We have about 45 confirmed cases. Out of 600,000. I have three in my zip code. Three. We are over represented in terms of healthcare providers because of the huge retired/replant crowd who go to the doctor all the time. If people were showing symptoms they'd be going to the doctor. They're not. I'm not wearing a mask.

It is what it is. Listen to the experts. They are experts for a reason. Govt can force citizens to wear a mask even if it's their local leaders. I asked that in my op. It's happening because it saves lives despite what the non experts want you to believe. Embrace it because it's not going away. Otherwise deal with with the consequences.

Don't forget the refrigerated trucks that our county judge has contracted for that are sitting waiting for all the dead bodies.

You mean the experts that say that homemade masks, scarves, bandanas and handkerchiefs are completely useless? These are all things which Harris County are saying are sufficient for the order.

No thanks.

But I will continue to ignore anything that you think is "for the common good"

There is ZERO fact based evidence that a civilian cloth mask does anything to stop the spread of COVID19

this is pure fearmongering by liberal cities to try and keep their police state in tact

Masks are to be worn when out in public where they can make a difference. Show me factual info that shows that they don't.

The police state of SF started today...my ex college roommate and his wife, currently under "house arrest" hate the idea but have no choice but to obey...drones with speakers likely the next step.

Maybe they can set up a snitch line like NYC did

Fact1: This is dumb and people pushing for it are doing it for show and not efficacy.

Fact2: No cop is going to write a ticket for this. I've been to HEBs, convenience stores and other places sans face-chain and have yet to meet a single bit of resistance.

If your local government came out with only one way to wipe your butt, would you adhere to that too? Perhaps you would be better off in China where governement controls every aspect of your life. I think you'll find it much more accomodating there.

You like facts so much?

Show me one evidence based study that says a civilian cloth mask can stop aerosolized COVID particles

You won't because they don't exist

I don't care if it is a freaking thong over your face. It is better than nothing. Look at Hong Kong which resembles New York. They all do and their infected numbers are considerably lower. I read an article about someone in China having coronavirus on a bus and everyone got infected except for the 13 or so wearing masks. I'm too tired to post links but if you want to verify the advantages of wearing them, just google it!!!

I get there is not enough so save the surgical and n95 masks for the medical fields.

Mandate that all clothing companies start making the best masks they can for everyone else. This is an untapped market and probably where we are headed anyways. They can make masks of all kinds appealing to the masses, ATM masks, Metallica masks, Justin Beaver masks etc...I don't care what they look like. Just freaking make them. Please, pretty please.
I'm disappointment with my fellow Aggies on here.

Seems a good 80% listen to every word their government says and is willing to line up for the mark of the beast and experimental RNA vaccines not even tested on animals. Have fun with the side effects 5-7 years from now.
