How is it Covid can escape a secure lab but cannot penetrate my homemade mask?
Just curious 🤨

🤣 If you wear a KN95 mask, change it every 20 minutes, wear a laboratory gown and change that every 20 minutes, and wear surgical gloves and change them every time you touch something, you can be exposed to the virus and NOT catch it.
If you wear a regular surgical mask, or a homemade mask, it does not protect you from the virus at all. It's there to protect OTHER people in case you are infected, don't know, and are prone to explosive sneezing and coughing.
It doesn't prevent the virus from moving through any better than if you were wearing a chain link fence on your face.
It just [i]contains[/i] droplets from sneezes and coughs.
