At this point, mask-wearing has become second nature. It’s been the norm for well over a year now and I think it’s safe to say that there’s been a lot of trial and error in that amount of time. I’ve thrown away more cloth masks than I care to admit at this point. Too big, too hot, too thin, gaps at the sides, hurts my ears, doesn’t have a nose bar… These are just a few of the reasons I’ve tossed reusable masks after wearing them just once.
I’ve come to the conclusion that disposable masks are the way to go, and since you’re reading this you’re probably on the same page. They tend to be more breathable from cloth masks and most have more layers (often 3-5), making them more protective. As Dr. Gregory Charlop told NBC News earlier this year, “Disposable blue surgical-style masks seem to do a better job protecting the wearer and others nearby” He added, “Research suggests higher rates of viral transmission with cloth masks compared with blue surgical masks.”
