The WHO doesn't recommend masks for non-medical people to prevent #COVID2019 #coronavirus spread
Why?
Things I've seen people do while wearing masks:
- touch face
- pick nose
- lick food off finger
etc etc etc

I had a good old chuckle at the guy picking his nose with a mask on

Are they of any value in a closed space like an airplane for someone who might be travelling? If so, is it the N95? model you should be getting? Asking for a friend. :)

AFAIK there's no evidence they're more effective than strict hand hygiene practices. The best evidence was an RCT from the CDC that found no benefit for household transmission, but I haven't seen a study for plane travel specifically

And certainly don’t help when they’re down around your chin like the guy I saw yesterday.
