Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for your question. It is important to understand that using terms like “useless” when referring to masks during the current pandemic is a gross mischaracterization of all the scientific evidence presented by multiple sources. Although no mask can 100% prevent wearers from contracting an infectious disease, there is a large body of scientific evidence to suggest that certain behavioral factors (i.e. wearing masks, social distancing, and avoiding large gatherings) are effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19, as stated directly by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). To address your concerns, we urge you to go direct to the source of experts and read the current information on the CDC website with regards to their guidance during the COVID-19 crisis.
