I remember then, there was also an issue for bearded secular men, who were not being given the option of having the hood. I in fact belong to a group, who also have problem. People like myself who are very short sighted, and require eye glasses. Obviously we need to take ouR glasses off to put on the mask, and then we can't see a thing, and in the event of an emergency are at the mercy of others. Other possibilites such as prescription lenses or the hood for my group have been ruled out.<br />One other thing. Who said no missiles fell in Bnei Brak? My friend in Bnei Brak, told me that next to his Shul, a missile fell right outside, and he was on the ground right next to it.<br />I cannot fathom the idea, that no need to worry, because of keusha, we are protected. How many chareidim have been killed in terrorist attacks, example no 18 bus in Jerusalem, another incident at Beit Yisrael, and others? Also Beit Chabad in Mombay.Meir Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-52185640994790381792012-07-30T22:17:21.033+03:002012-07-30T22:17:21.033+03:00Regarding gas masks and beards: a bearded person ...Regarding gas masks and beards: a bearded person has basically two choices. They can shave the beard to accommodate a mask at the time of need; or they can acquire a larger, more cumbersome device which is essentially a hood that would cover the head and neck, enclosing the beard. If they have a very short beard, a regular mask *may* work. If they have a longer beard, a mask will not seal. At least, I wouldn't bet my life on it! I go through a similar choice process every year since we have to be fit-checked for airborne pathogen barrier masks each year for work.Mordechai Y.
