You have to be kidding me. People do not know this? Especially since a shortage of both has been national news since I don't know when!

Ventilators and respirators like this does not help. You only should be wearing one if you got the virus.And everyone who do not have the virus is wearing them and it heightens the fear, stress, and more.

A respirator on the other hand is a mask that assist in filtering particulate matter.
