Karina G Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Where are people finding masks now? I haven't been out and only have 1 disposable left for when I need to pay bills. I did try making my own, but it was kind of a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TelsZ4 Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 They have a large selection at the Tuesday market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisbee Gal Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Last Wed. at Ajijic tianguis there was a mask seller. There wasn't much foot traffic at the tianguis and this seller's table was at the bottom of market, which now is just below Guadalupe Victoria. In Ajijic, I see signs outside residences advertising masks. There is one on Independencia just west of Cinco de Mayo, aka Juarez. There is another one on Ocampo near Cinco de Mayo also. The signs come and go. If you are unable to find one, please PM and I will give you a new-in-bag washable one. I am in Centro Ajijic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean about suffocating. The ones at Famacia Christina are the light blue ones that let you breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 I ordered some from Mercado Libre on April 1st . They are still not here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevator Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 You can buy all types of mask on Mercado Libre. They have n95, n99 and surgical masks. I've ordered three times and they show up within a week. And I don't need a lecture about buying the n95 masks. The ones on mercado libre are available top anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostlylost Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 2 hours ago, Floradude said: I ordered some from Mercado Libre on April 1st . They are still not here A suggestion is that you cancel your order. Re-order from a merchant that has the green symbol of FULL. (you can modify your search on the left for only FULL results) Those items ship from Mercadolibre's warehouse and usually is 1 day to Chapala. I received a Saturday AM purchase on Sunday about 1pm Right now there is a huge problem with FedEx, Estafeta, and DHL because of the volume of deliveries.

Floradude Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Good suggestion Mostlylost. Thank you. The latest message from Mercado Libre is that they would be here on our before June 4th. So, after waiting this long I hold out a while longer and then if they are not here I will implement your suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Solar Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 This email just out from Alta Retina:, here is the relevant portion for masks: A medical distributor is offering KN95 Masks, which have a filtration capacity of 95%, to our clinic at a fairly good price of 110 pesos, we have requested some boxes, so you can add to our order the ones you need, if you so wish. If you want, you can contact them directly on PH: 33 36140405 or put an order via. mail or With Nadia Alta Retina receptionist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 I ordered two packs of 25 blue masks from Mercado Libre. yesterday. They are to arrive on Friday. Incidentally, there was a 15% discount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Solar Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 As an FYI on KN95's in general, and all masks, know and check them to be sure they do what you need / expect: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/health-canada-issues-recall-of-some-kn95-masks-made-in-china-1.5568734 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgo lady Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 Some detail on this, as mentioned above, check the # on the mask or package, as apparently rated masks have to imprint it and some are being copied / falsified...... https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/chinese-masks-counterfeit-pandemic-covid-1.5568246 The CDC has warned that the TC number issued to the Shanghai Dasheng Co. for its masks — TC 84A-4329 — has been misappropriated by other Chinese makers seeking to sell substandard products in the U.S. market.
