Dear body,

I have just learned that the viral attack of a cold actually ends several days prior to the onset of symptoms, and that these symptoms are caused by a mostly useless over-reaction of the immune system. So I just wanted to let you know that it's ok; you can stop producing mucous now!

Thanks for understanding
Me

Oh weird... I had a pretty nasty cold last week, still a bit snotty now...

I just let my Body get on with it now... I can't be bothered to sort it out :-)

Well... I honestly don't know how much use a paper filter would be against virus and even bacterial infection... though it would definitely reduce the amount of airborne pollutants that you would breath... I suppose most airborne viruses are carried via water droplets, and for sure, the mask would reduce the number you breath...

But I remember reading somewhere that most infections are actually spread via physical contact... i.e. from face to hand to object to hand to face... Wash your hands :-)

I suppose it depends on how fine the mesh is. If it's fine enough it might stop the microbes from penetrating to your face. Might be a bit hard to breathe through it though ;-) In all seriousness, medics use them so the must work to some extent.

Ahhh, yes very good point! Touché :-)

Hmm, I do tend to touch my face quite a lot, rub my eyes, bite my fingernails, chew pens etc. Perhaps I should stop that...

Indeed, I'll see if I can find an online version of the paper I was reading regarding infection spread...

It may sound like a cliche, but to me the sum of personal aspects is what counts. Y'know...  :-)

The above quote was supposed to be said with a Welsh accent.. a la Little Britain :-)

But you ask a good question... and I guess I really should sample a little more before I make up my mind :-D
