    It does for me, but I have underlying respiratory issues to begin with. 

    That is one of the reasons I avoid going out - though 'people' in general is my primary reason.

    Fair enough. I get a steady reading of 98% with or without a mask. That's the baseline I've established with my cheapo pule oximeter over the last 6+ months.

    Mercifully, no-one I know has suffered or died from Covid-19. It certainly was weird and scary earlier this year going out to deserted streets full of closed-up shops, strict spacing rules on public transport and supermarkets. I bought cheap Chinese clones of the 3M 6200 and 6800 masks in February and they've served me well. Even after factoring in the cost of replacement filter packs, they've worked out cheaper than buying paper disposables over the same time period. An extra bonus is that the 6200 mask, which I use for cycling, is excellent at exhaust fumes. No more gagging on diesel or 2-stroke pollution!

    At least we've got the vaccination program to look forward to, so things might get back to normal next year.
