There has been a lot of news about masks during the COVID-19 pandemic. Such as which masks to wear, when to wear a mask, why wear a mask, even about people who want to wear masks, people who don’t want to wear masks, and people who really, really don’t want to wear masks.
To confront these questions, the U.S. CDC published some important information about masks on June 28, 2020.
And recently, a study published on September 2, 2020, compared a variety of commonly available mask types and observed that some mask types approach the performance of standard surgical masks, while some mask alternatives, such as neck gaiters or bandanas ... offer very little coronavirus transmission protection.
