Ok Karen.
Show me the science where ANY mask or respirator can filter out ALL particles at or below 0.125 microns in size.
Spoiler alert: None exist.
That is why all agencies dealing with this virus require supplied air.
Like most “public health” requirements, its not for you. Its for the other folks when you go out with an active case of Covid and spit, sneeze and cough your germs into the air.
But, persons stupid enough to go out and roam around whilst sick should wear a mask.
For my part, I am not going out if I get sick. Hence, no mask.
Disposable gloves, however, protect one from the disease left on doorknobs, gas pump handles, etc. by sick persons.
Hence, lots of gloves.
I wonder if studies have found the virus viable in 0.125 micron vapors? And if they were transported in them, how long before the vapors evaporated leading the virus to self-destruct?
