Original Note:
Masks alone cannot stop all infections, but they are part of a layered approach to prevent COVID19 spread. A user needs the right mask for a variant ie cloth is much less helpful than a 95, but they have been shown to be effective in helping to slow community spread. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-mask/art-20485449 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2022/01/05/cloth-masks-not-effective-omicron-covid/9091574002/ https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20210907/masks-limit-covid-spread-study
