      1. So much of the mistrust swirling around mask recommendations from WHO and other authorities seems to have arisen out of confusion between receiver protection (your mask protects you from others) and source control (your mask protects others from you).

      2. A properly fitted N95 provides effective receiver protection, but fitting is very difficult and not easily achieved by members of the public without training and equipment. This thread provides further detail:https://twitter.com/leorahorwitzmd/status/1235018922023440385 …

      Non medical friends, let’s have a chat about masks. So, you’ve bought yourself a box of N95 masks and you think you’re good for #COVID19. Let me tell you what my hospital makes me do EVERY YEAR to make sure my N95 mask fits (yes, they come in sizes). Watch out: long thread ahead!

      Replying to @CT_Bergstrom

      I think thatLeora Horwitz' thread has done a lot of damage, despite its good intentions. A lot of people took from it that N95 masks are useless without fitting, which is false. A narrative about how to get the best results in a medical setting is not a scientific study.

          The thread was condescending, arrogant, lacking common sense and misinterpreted inefficiencies in medicine as some kind of professionalism or expertise.

          It was well intentioned, and the criteria for healthcare workers are more strict; if one of them gets sick the harm is much larger than for the average person. It's easy for people to get carried away and try to give general health advice, especially when they work in medicine.
