In The New York Times, a suggestion to double-mask:
Double-masking is a sensible and easy way to lower your risk, especially if circumstances require you to spend more time around others — like in a taxi, on a train or plane, or at an inauguration.I have it from an informed source that double-masking is standard practice for many doctors and nurses: better mask underneath, cheap paper mask on top. Toss the cheap mask, and let the better mask sit in sunlight before using again.

When assisting with intubation and extubation, I wear N95 and a surgical mask together. I wear a surgical mask at all other times while in the building, except while eating lunch facing away and 6' away from anyone else.
So far, so good.
I'm glad you have N95s. :)
