A completely misleading Meme.
Here is an article put out by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services

Bacterial Pneumonia Caused Most Deaths in 1918 Influenza Pandemic
Implications for Future Pandemic Planning
There is absolutely nothing in the report saying the Bacterial Pneumonia was caused by wearing masks.
Outright lying, IMHO.
I hope there’s enough feedback reminded people of this - it was the killer masks.
...........
The article does not state anything about masks, consider the source. You find the search engines are filled with articles stating things just like that, they bury truth on many other subjects, like the Covid scam.
You have to do some digging, most people wear the same mask over and over again, even in hospitals where I had to wear the same N 19 mask over and over again. They are expensive and have to be individually fitted. A very restricting mask which made it hard to breath sufficiently through.
So here is one article telling the truth. Bacterial and fungal isolation from face masks under the COVID-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has led people to wear face masks daily in public. Although the effectiveness of face masks against viral transmission has been extensively studied, there have been few reports on potential hygiene issues due to bacteria and fungi attached to the face masks. We aimed to (1) quantify and identify the bacteria and fungi attaching to the masks, and (2) investigate whether the mask-attached microbes could be associated with the types and usage of the masks and individual lifestyles. We surveyed 109 volunteers on their mask usage and lifestyles, and cultured bacteria and fungi from either the face-side or outer-side of their masks. The bacterial colony numbers were greater on the face-side than the outer-side; the fungal colony numbers were fewer on the face-side than the outer-side. A longer mask usage significantly increased the fungal colony numbers but not the bacterial colony numbers. Although most identified microbes were non-pathogenic in humans; Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Cladosporium, we found several pathogenic microbes; Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Aspergillus, and Microsporum. We also found no associations of mask-attached microbes with the transportation methods or gargling.
We propose that immunocompromised people should avoid repeated use of masks to prevent microbial infection.
