According To Dr. Fauci, the CDC could recommend wearing double masks, 2 masks at once.
America's top infectious disease expert said it's "possible" that federal health officials could soon recommend "double masking" in an effort to better prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.
Speaking to the Washington Post, Dr. Anthony Fauci reiterated that researchers with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are looking into this matter, noting that more data is needed before a decision will be made.
"That’s possible," that the CDC could recommend two masks, Fauci said.
1. An N95 mask offers more protection than a surgical mask does because it can filter out both large and small particles when the wearer inhales. As the name indicates, the mask is designed to block 95% of very small particles. The idea of wearing 2 surgical masks during a surgery is just plain stupid, as is the idea of enforcing the wearing 2 N95 masks.
2. Wearing masks for prolonged periods of time or in strenuous conditions / jobs can cause the lowering of your O2 level resulting in decrease in clear thinking, lack of balance, and other health conditions.
3. When you wear a mask, lets say you get C-19 on the outside of your mask. Most people use their hands to pull the mask off, touching the outside of the mask, toss it aside, then touch their faces and surroundings. This will not change even if the wearing of 2 masks ... or 3... or 4 ... are mandated.
Wearing 2 masks simultaneously? You know what else would help? Wearing a bag over our heads....or maybe 2 bags. How about 2 masks and 2 bags?
Of course with the news that wearing 1 mask is not working, this is all the justification we need to shut down restaurants, schools, & businesses again...to issue more stay-at-home orders....
Sorry, I'm not wearing 2 masks at once. I'll stick with my 1 ... single ... N95 mask, and Fauci, the CDC, and Biden can go * themselves.
