At parts of the Winter Olympics in Italy, COVID precautions remain, grounded in the reality that airborne infections are still circulating. When your body is your livelihood, prevention is part of performance.

Prevention is critical because every avoided infection reduces the risk of Long COVID.

Long COVID doesn’t only affect health—it reshapes work. Many healthcare workers describe ongoing symptoms that change how they function day to day, forcing reduced hours, amended duties, or a phased return. At the same time, the pressure to “carry on” can be intense—driven by professional identity, staffing shortages, and fear of being seen as unreliable. Without clear Long COVID guidance, workplace adjustments can become inconsistent, slow, and stressful for everyone involved.
Prevention is critical because every avoided infection reduces the risk of Long COVID.

Relatively major culture-maker Boing Boing is running the headline:
COVID pandemic enters seventh year with no end in sight

A research group looked at results for over 97,000,000 people, and found
COVID-19 was associated with a 49% increased risk of new-onset autoimmune-related diseases
and flat out:
SARS-CoV-2 infection increases the risk of autoimmune diseases, particularly those affecting vascular and connective tissue. Risk is amplified by severe infection and attenuated by vaccination
and it's hard to imagine a stronger proof - most countries don't have 97 million people in them!

I need to buy a new, reusable N95 or N99 face mask. Any recommendations? Must be affordable, UK-based, and minimal fog when wearing glasses.
