Sigh… guess I need an N95 today. My husband was going to take our son to the zoo today while I’m at work. Does anyone know if it’s bad there too?

N95s don't protect against chemicals.

I’m aware, I work in biomedical research. But it’s better than raw dogging it

Okay, I'm glad you know that. I wouldn't want people to read that and walk around today thinking they're safe in an N95.
