Anyone who has been properly trained, tested, and fitted for respiratory protection knows masks are shit.
A surgical mask is great for keeping drops of blood from getting into a surgeons mouth during surgery, or your plaque/tooth chips from a dentist, or spit from the caretaker getting into a wound etc. But that's it, a far cry from airborne viruses.
It feels like getting into a car and having only a lap belt, wearing a surgical/cloth style mask. The masks they handed out at my work you could see through if held up to the light.
This is a good video.
