Thank you for enlightening me. Being in the medical profession I should have thought about this before now. It never even crossed my mind that could be an issue. Granted my use of them is for residents at the Long Term Facility, but I will bring this up to our Infection Control Manager to keep in mind if the Swine Flu (I know that's not PC anymore but don't remember the number/alphabet name for it) becomes an issue up in our little out of the way part of the world. I guess that's one more good reason to live up here.

I was teaching deaf middle school kids, and we had to teach them at school how to put on their gas masks. This was a time when nobody wanted to be alone, and the deaf kids (all signers) always had someone around to tell them what to do. Everyone had TVs in their sealed rooms, and everything was captioned in Hebrew, English, and Russian.<br /><br />My biggest fear was that I couldn't really see very well with the mask on. I am REALLY nearsighted, and I couldn't get my glasses under the mask. I eventually popped a lens out of my spare glasses and taped it inside the lens on one side of the mask, so I could sort of see a little. It was really awful, and it was very important for me to not let the kids know I was much more frightened than they were.<br /><br />I guess we all have our own personal nightmares.P.T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4264664035215127547.post-18843399892578179282009-05-02T01:56:00.000-05:002009-05-02T01:56:00.000-05:00I just wish they would make see through or clear s...I just wish they would make see through or clear surgical masks.<br /><br />Evern hearing people lipread to some extent, so fo rme this would make a lot of sense :)<br /><br />It couldn't be that hard surely?<br /><br />I was in this predicament just after my surgery, both times last year and the year before. it was thought I had a hospital bug so everyone gowned up and put a mask on. I had no idea what they were saying. Once they knew I was deaf, they stopped wearing the masks though to their credit, and a few days later it was found I didn't have the bug at all anyway!<br /><br />Cheers<br />RobynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4264664035215127547.post-15586308150845410882009-05-01T22:57:00.000-05:002009-05-01T22:57:00.000-05:00"If you knew sign language you wouldn't be in such..."If you knew sign language you wouldn't be in such a spot". <br /><br />Why do people make such stupid comments?
