Comment on Lockdowns and face masks ‘unequivocally’ cut spread of Covid, report finds
GreatAlbatross@feddit.uk 1 year agoMasks were mostly effective at stopping someone infecting others.
Only properly sealed N95+ masks would really be effective on the receiving end.
And sadly, that meant that the (non-exempt) selfish bastards who refused to wear them still spread it around.
So you were definitely protecting other people, and did a great job :)

My company’s owner (were an MSP, maybe 30-40 employees back then) somehow got a backdoor deal on some N95 masks for us at the company, and we had a lot of work from home too. I’m not sure they were quite as good as official ones, but they were still pretty good until more masks became available.

You have to get Fit Tested to find the right N95 respirators. You likely had KN95S respirators.
They work just as good.
