the part about the face masks has a taint of truth to it,,
the thing is that yes masks if they are of top standard can decrease how much is inhaled when you are near someone.
however wearing a mask causes people who touch things with their hand. to continually be adjusting the mask to be comfy thus smuthering any contaminate on their hand to their face more
if your going to be wearing a face mask. stop touching it so often. treat it as a physical reminder to keep your hands away
i see too many people wear a loose fit mask and be adjusting it every couple minutes. thus defeating the point of the mask
doctors in hospitals scrub their hands and take sterilised mask. and actually spend good time to make sure it fits comfortably and securely to not be touched again for hours.. before even dare touching random things.
doctors change scrubs(clothing) regularly when they leave an intensive care ward
..
but if random people in town are grabbing public door handles and then adjusting their mask every 2 minutes.. the mask is actually working against its purpose. because your face is then smuthered with invisible virus
think about it.
if your going to wear one. put it on with fresh clean hands, dont touch anything else. make sure its confy and secure to not need to touch for hours. and then remember. when you go out and about in public ..dont touch your face
