Questions for Dr Allison Berry:
1. I dropped my KF94 mask on the carpet after two wearings. Only the exterior of the mask touched the carpet. Should the mask be discarded? Is dropping a mask on the floor the same
as dropping food on the floor - do we automatically throw it out?
2. The last session you talked a lot about a state phone line to call for Paxlovid and a website to go to but you never said what they were.
Could you please give the phone and website and remind us where to get free tests?
Thank you.
3. I was in Seattle this week in a Bartell Drugstore and heard a recorded announcement advertising an additional booster shot for the Omicron variant for ages 5 and up, if you had already
completed the two booster series, and it was at least two months ago.
Is there an additional third booster shot recommended now for all ages? Or did I mishear the announcement? I haven’t seen or heard of any additional booster and this surprised me.
