I have gotten sick a lot over the years since I was a little kid.
I remember getting head colds a lot when I was in elementary university as well as missed classes more than multiple of the other students I went to university with.
It was genuinely aggravating when I would miss class on afternoons when there were field trips. It also frustrated me when I fell behind in physical activities like interests. I had asthma from a genuinely young age as well as it made me sicker than most kids were when they would get things like bronchitis or basic head colds. I hated having to use inhalers as well as nasal sprays when I was at university as well as in front of other students. You can imagine the kind of teasing I got whenever I pulled out an inhaler, especially since I also had glasses at the time; When covid rolled around I absolutely did not hate wearing a mask everywhere I went. Aside from feeling safe against airborne illnesses, I was also protected from airborne allergens when I was outdoors. That’s why I still like to wear a face mask when I am outside because I cannot use an air cleaner when I am just walking from my motorcar to my office for instance. I am exposed to all of the pollen as well as mold spores in the air as well as they can get directly into my lungs as well as wreak havoc on my respiratory health. These masks are a lifesaver for me as well as absolutely lessen my flu symptom symptoms when I am not at home as well as using an air cleaner instead.
