Suggestion for using a water bottle instead of mylar sheets which may be hard to come by.

Thank you so much for your suggestion and work on this.

At this time, we don't support this alternative in this context. The main reason is the wide availability of flat clear plastics in any hospital with a face shield need. Even in the Gaza Strip, we haven't had an issue sourcing clear flat plastic.

We can re-examine if this becomes an issue later.

Where can I order the mylar that you are using? Do you have any you can send?

I can't find a supplier.
