When 80%+ of Covid-19 cases are transmitted being near someone speaking, sneezing, coughing as a result of droplets any little bit can help. Even a scarf would help to some degree, but I do acknowledge it would provide very little additional protection albeit some.
Our medical personal don't wear masks & N95 masks because they are bored. They ABSOLUTELY work, they just are not fail proof. Any other propaganda or people saying masks do not HELP is just completely false. Period.
If PPE didn't work, then people who work in restoration & the contamination business wouldn't use them, either.
