Meta-analysis:
➡ Physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of respiratory viruses
https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD006207.pub6/full
The pooled results of RCTs did not show a clear reduction in respiratory viral infection with the use of medical/surgical masks. There were no clear differences between the use of medical/surgical masks compared with N95/P2 respirators in healthcare workers when used in routine care to reduce respiratory viral infection.
Research study:
➡ Respiratory Performance Offered by N95 Respirators and Surgical Masks: Human Subject Evaluation with NaCl Aerosol Representing Bacterial and Viral Particle Size Range
https://academic.oup.com/annweh/article/52/3/177/312528?login=false
Most of the tested N95 respirators and surgical masks in this study were observed to perform at their worst against particles approximately between 0.04 and 0.2 μm, which includes the sizes of coronavirus and influenza virus.
➡ The Foegen effect
A mechanism by which facemasks contribute to the COVID-19 case fatality rate
This study revealed that wearing facemasks might impose a great risk on individuals, which would not be mitigated by a reduction in the infection rate. The use of facemasks, therefore, might be unfit, if not contraindicated, as an epidemiologic intervention against COVID-19.

Q. What was the origin of the #pandemic?
A. The origin of the pandemic was:
- governments and medical professionals lying to the public about how Covid spread (#CovidIsAirborne by #aerosols) - - and refusing to tell anyone how to protect themselves (#N95, #N99, #P100, #P3 #elastomeric #respirator #masks, #HEPA filters, #CleanTheAir)
- and talking nonsense about handwashing instead
The origin of the virus is irrelevant.
HEPA filters and P100 respirator masks would have prevented the PANDEMIC.

I get really terrible PSAs from government agencies on my Facebook feed.
I comment on all of them telling them they need to talk about how #CovidIsAirborne, #InfluenzaIsAirborne, #RSVIsAirborne, it's stopped by #N95, #N99, #P100 masks, #HEPA filters, #CorsiRosenthalBoxes, and I drop a link to https://its-airborne.org .
Maybe I'll reach someone. I'm now doing more public health work than the CDC, WHO, or the state health department, which is ridiculous.

Hate that I even have to ask this but has anyone in Canada (or more specifically #Toronto #GTA) had issues wearing half face respirators to the hospital? I’m mainly worried about doctors labeling me paranoid or a hypochondriac… but I also have a long day coming up and want the best protection. It’s between the half face P100 or a headband #N99 with shield or goggles. #covid #sarscov2 #maskswork #covidisairborne

Dear #Lazyweb --
Does anyone know of trustworthy #N99 (or equivalent, and not #N95) #respirators that are on the larger size?
I have tried https://wellbefore.com/products/wellbefore-n99-respirator-mask-niosh-approved and like them, but they are too short vertically and my chin wants to pop out when I speak.

@AnneSosin
The benefits of NPIs, specifically #elastomeric #respirator #masks (#N99, #FFP3, #P3, #P100) and #HEPA filters, are monumental. Frankly boosters and treatment access do much, much less.
#FFP3s ended in-hospital transmission (Cambridge, UK): https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/upgrading-ppe-for-staff-working-on-covid-19-wards-cut-hospital-acquired-infections-dramatically
Covid in hospital air before #HEPA installed, gone after #HEPA installed (Cambridge, UK again): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34718446/

@rchusid Now we just need @WHO to mention #N95, #N99, #P100, #FFP2, #FFP3, #P3, #KF94, and/or #KN95 #elastomeric #respirators -- the ones which *work* -- rather than just vaguely saying "masks".
Cloth & surgical junk masks are 30% effective -- better than nothing.
#N95 and reusable #P100 #elastomeric #respirators are >95% effective -- MUCH better. And they're cheap enough.
#n95 #n99 #P100 #FFP2 #ffp3 #p3 #KF94 #KN95 #elastomeric #respirators
Step one is to get a quality #respirator #mask -- #N95, #N99. #P100, #KN95, #KF94, #FFP2, #FFP3, #P3 -- I prefer #elastomeric P100.
Step two is to wear it ( #WearAMask ) when around other people, because anyone could be infected.
Step three is to put a #HEPA filter or #CorsiRosenthalBox in your home (and business if you have one).

#N95, similar, or better.
#KF94, #KN95, and #FFP2 are similar.
#N99 and #FFP3 are better.
#P3 and #P100 are even better, and are always resuable (cheaper in the long run)
But what matters most is a tight fit. #Elastomeric #respirators (rubber or silicone edge) usually fit better. Straps behind the head always -- earloops almost never fit well.
I wear the 3M 6300 with #P100 filters -- it's a reusable #elastomeric.

@actagainstcovid Not disagreeing. But we need real community-led responses, not astroturfed stuff. I won't boost an article unless it mentions either #respirator #masks (#N95, #KN95, #KF94, #FFP2, #FFP3, #N99, #P100), #HEPA filters, or the #CorsiRosenthalBox.

You are not anywhere near "out the other side" -- Covid's still running amok in Canada - averaging 2300 new *reported* cases/day, but most people are just doing home tests & not reporting!
Yeah, things are getting terrible in China, but they're still very bad in Canada and the US, despite dishonest government "happy talk".
Protect yourself! #N95, #N99, #KF94, #P100, find a #respirator #mask which fits and is comfortable. FloMask is usually the favorite for kids.
#n95 #n99 #KF94 #P100 #respirator #mask
It's the lack of airborne infection control in the hospitals & doctor's offices which really terrifies me.
Here in the US, my partner was infected by doctor's offices. Twice.
The offices STILL have no ventilation, no air filtration, no #N95 / #N99 / #P100 / #FFP2 / #FFP3 / #P3 #respirator #masks.
Even though Cambridge proved that #HEPA
removes Covid from the air. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34718446/
