In the article you linked, the author stated that surgical masks reduce viral load in a healthcare setting.
lol
But we’re not talking about “surgical masks”. We’ve been talking about “cloth masks”. She (a nationally recognized expert on infectious diseases) clearly stated in the article I linked, “cloth masks in my opinion don’t work in any form. They aren’t very good at source control, except for maybe very large particles. And they should
not be used in healthcare settings...”.
still lol
