[QUOTE="JD8, post: 3447681, member: 24"] Like I said... stop while you are ahead. Actually it doesn't show that at all. You need to understand a few things. Surgical masks, are somewhat designed in the manner you speak, however they DO protect the wearer to some degree. However, cloth masks, which nearly everyone wears, offer no more or less protection for the public than they do the wearer. We are talking about droplets in the air and the fabric isn't one way. Finally, an N95 masks or other respirator types are generally designed to protect the wearer. Here's the CDC info on it since you like them to reference. [URL]https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npptl/pdfs/UnderstandDifferenceInfographic-508.pdf[/URL] You honestly have no idea how she got it. Just like many on my wife's unit, they've taken the precautions required and have still contracted the virus. I'd wager there's still an amount we may not know about CV19's transmission. [/QUOTE]
