Sorry, but sometimes it's fun to remind germophobes that there is NO WAY to avoid germs.
Correction: the space program does it--but they have a lot of our money.

What kind of filters? Disposable or reusable?DianeMDennis wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 2:30 pmHi!
I went to pick up my filters for the month and they gave me open filters, not in a package, just loose floating in the paper bag. I asked about it and they said it's normal. That's the first time in 10 years of getting filters regularly that the filters were not packaged together.
I refused them and told them to call me when they have filters that are in their packages, because I don't want filters that are contaminated with their employees' fingers and anything and everything floating around.
Is it normal to get filters that are not wrapped? I've always received a small plastic package with two disposable filters in it, never filters that were already open.
Thank you!!

The only filters I've ever used are the reusable (black) foam filters which I rinse out and reuse twice a month.
Still using the originals. I have spares which I've purchased from CPAP.COM......they are sealed in two-pack plastic bags.

This topic reminded me of the finger print on the glass scene from The Aviator.
The senator deliberately places a big greasy finger print on Howard Hughes drinking glass, knowing he was a germaphobe to disarm him during their negotiations.
