Travel masks?
Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried using masks when they travel to minimize risk of exposure to illness? What have you tried -- and have they worked for you?
Thanks!

Hello Kristen,
I have used an I 95 mask on an airplane in the past. I carry one with me in case I am sitting by someone who may be coughing. Ventilation on a plane is not great . I will take any one essay precaution not to get an infection at this point in time
