    Example of how the purpose of masks for ordinary people is still not understood. The ones with exhalation valves, including N95s, should not be worn around people, period. Not just in sterile hospital operating rooms as NYT claims. Cotton mask>valved N95. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/coronavirus-best-face-masks.html …

        That mask has a simple one way check valve that is allowing him to exhale completely unfiltered. You’re a fucking idiot.

        I knew this, assumed that people wearing such masks were mostly unaware that they were not doing social mask-wearing right.

        Simple solution… tape over the valve on the inside.
