Alex and I did a study on over 2000 community dwelling older adults, and we found that over two thirds of people had geriatric conditions, these geriatric syndromes, and palliative care related problems like pain, difficulty climbing stairs.

And then maybe KN95s, FFP2s and KF94s, if you wear them, at least in physical science studies, if you’re inside in a crowded where Warrior stadium or something, that should provide you some self protection. And one in five people had a serious COVID complication. So TB, we all wear N95 masks and that does actually protect you.
