I don't think it is realistic to expect to stop transmission of a highly contagious airborne virus indoors, without full hazmat suits and negative-pressure rooms.

Even a properly-fitted N95 mask on a freshly clean-shaven face ( women too, because peach fuzz leaks ) dosen't stay well-adjusted once the doctor starts moving and bending over patients, yawning, talking, sneezing/coughing, etc.

LTC facilities and hospitals were compulsively washing everything and using masks yet they kept having outbreaks during all the periods there was significant transmission for anyone to bring the virus in.

However, those crucial lessons about airborne virus contagion are not being learned because governments and "experts" are stuck in a sort of delusional state where they conclude that a few studies hinting at a reduction of a few percentage points in transmission means "masks totally work and will prevent outbreaks".
