Many folks are working or interacting with people who are masked to varying degrees and wearing masks of varying quality/fit, and different levels of ventilation. Different patterns of showing up to work with symptoms, too. So hospital to community translation is a little messy.

The 3 of you seen this? Before declaring "increases in transmisibility are real" perhaps...https://twitter.com/davidwdowdy/status/1354298137343647750?s=19 …

Plausibly, sure. But it would be surprising if we went from a pathogen w little to no (to my knowledge) epi evidence of transmission in context of surgical masks to one in which an upgrade beyond standard surgical mask made more than a small difference.

Admittedly I am biased by my hospital experience, with 100s of personal exposures using a surgical mask +/- face shield and this being standard practice, with patients +/- on masking and occupational health contact tracing finding single digit patient to hcw transmissions
