There's always the shemagh / keffiyeh, though I don't know how effective two layers of loosely woven cotton would be against the virus.

It's good against sand, and dust, but those particles are a little bit larger, ha ha...

I am amazed at what these guys can do.

Chloroquine may ber helpful - and at 16 cents a tab in Australia , what has anyone got to loose if they are barking out their lungs

The problem is that Chloroquine is a dangerous drug with nasty side effects, and possibility of overdose.  Sure, if it is matter of life or death it would be used, if it is effectivel,  BUT there is so far not a real evidence it is doing anything.  Just because somebody who was very sick got better, does not mean it was because of the drug.  Some people get better.

If you are cagey about Chloroquine , maybe consider making sure your zinc levels are adequate

( btw Chloroquine is prescribed drug, so Doctor managed )

I ordered Woolies on-line last Wednesday, but delivery is not until tomorrow (Monday)

It's taking them 5 days to deliver, but I bought at last week's prices.

If I'd known, I might've bought more.

You have to be a hypochondriac. Very few people would have what you consider to be basic ingredients. For those that do, I'm sure they are grateful.

What happened to your UVC filters and negative pressure domicile?
