Abstract: An individual sized, sleeping bivy in the form of a lightweight, self-supporting, personal shelter that provides protection from bug bites and stings and, more particularly, concerns a personal shelter sized for an individual regardless of whether that individual is a child or a grown adult male to prevent illness and death, especially among children. The bivy includes an endoskeleton or frame overlaid and integrated with mosquito netting, and includes a flooring member connected to the endoskeleton. The endoskeleton is preferably, but not necessarily, an inflatable structure or a self-rising structure that can be collapsed into a small package suitable for easy carrying, for mass distribution, or to be supplied via airdrops.

Abstract: The invention is an inflatable, wedge-shaped incline mattress that uses internal air baffles to present an inclined sleep surface of uniforms gradient to help relieve Gastric Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
