Rick - I've watched all your prep videos and am loving them. Very informative, well presented. 5*

But, I must comment on gas masks. It's generally believed that army surp masks are useless at protection, due to their limited lifespan. The army surp ones will be expired and may leak (stiffened rubber/use). Filters deteriorate once opened. Also, older masks (WW2) may have asbestos in them. Generally buy new industrial ones (NATO military ones are actually restricted/not for sale).

Cheers!

:)

Thanks for the info. I have to admit, this is stuff I didn't know. d:o)

[FURRYYAK]

where would you get one of those industrial gas masks?

[rickvanman]

They're pretty widely available. Just Google

"industrial full face respirators"

Mine is a Sundstrom SR 200 - they retail for about £150 plus about £30 for each filter.

what makes the industrial gas mask better that the NATO one?

[ChemicalMikeUK]

someone told me that the filters in gas mask have an expiration date, do you know whether this is true or not? i have an israeli style gasmask and ive had it for a few years. thanks

[kikiylful]

where can you buy those masks? loving the videos

[prnkstr]

Hand sanitazier is not ideal no...use clorine/bleach instead. Also very good for disinfecting equipment etc. For viral diseases that are waterborne, a good dust mask, rubber gloves, some goggles and maby even some ductape will protect you unless you are careless. For airborne viruses etc, you will need some serious protection, and is a entirely different ballgame altogether...

What about a video on like the safty of your family when its really bad, like apocolypes bad, like gun control, locks for your house or wherever ur staying, maybe theres a fire and u need a flame retardent suit

In regards to not touching your face, how many of us come home, struggling with bags of groceries, etc, pull out your keys one handed ( the other is full), and separate out the key you want with your mouth? Makes it easier to grab and open the door, but who else has done the same before you? Very nasty habit, and potentially dangerous for condo/apartment dwellers.

What I have heard to get rid of viruses on the hands is use water as hot as you can stand it and lather up good with soap or even dish soap.

05 Damn! Knew I should've taken that speed reading course. lol

Take a look at Jerraph's comments below - the NATO masks may not be a good investment
