  1. Before disposable masks, we used cotton masks made of 7 to 10 layers of tight weave muslin. I would assume muslin or calico, seven layers or more, would suffice.
    10
  2. Fifty years ago gowns, linens, masks, etc. were not disposable, but were washed, then put into giant autoclaves to be sterilized. Do any hospitals still have those autoclaves, so that these homemade masks could be washed, sterilized and reused?
