Health-care workers work indoors with sick people and do things like intubation that create and spew around tiniest particles. They need PPE--to protect themselves. The point of ordinary people wearing cloth masks is to protect others. Yeah, don't intubate with a cloth mask!

The study you're citing is comparing (rarely changed) cloth masks against standard use surgical masks (disposable) and finds, reasonably, that healthcare workers should not do that! But the author of that study is on the record recommending cloth masks for community for this!
