Original Note:
According to the study cited, both masks prevent respiratory viral infections. The study compared differences in the prevention between N95 and medical masks. No mask prevents infections with 100% efficacy, but do prevent incidence of infection compared to not wearing a mask. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2749214
