Yes it does. If it didn’t, no medical staff would ever wear them. It cuts the risk of infection. Nothing is foolproof except biohazard gear, but you take all precautions to decrease your risk of infection and transmission to others. I bet colds and flu won’t be so prevalent this winter, if most people wear masks. Not 100% effective, but better than no mask, especially if you stay 6-20 feet away too.
