CISA: Guidance on the Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce

Fri Mar 20 12:08:53 UTC 2020

I hope they give them masks, and ideally total body coverage, one time 
use, like One Time Passwords.

I really hope it.

Lots of key workers here without masks.

I dont know whether you know the joke about going to war without 
weapons.  We did kid about Russians doing that in WWII, and about others 
in WW1.

If you do not have masks, please make mask yourself, do it yourself, 
tissue, elastics, its easy; cut a rear pocket from the jeans. Constalty 
wear it, but also when distanced from others remove it.  One can see to 
a longer distance than one can breath the virus spread.  But stay away 
and dont breath if mask down. It's also good to wear eye glasses, like 
'shades', to avoid virus intake by the eyes.

When one shows face to others its good, somebody can tell have seen that 
person.

If you do wear gloves then make sure you change them after each time you 
touched something.  Changing gloves involves a particular technique: 
whhen ungloving avoid touching the external side of glove with your skin.

Do not put your gloved hands in your elbow angle while waiting  
patiently and showing force (some security people wear gloves, then 
cough in elbow, and then display force by putting palms in elbow angle - 
'croiser les bras', french).
