Not necessarily, the N95 mask will filter out particles(this includes bacteria) above 300 nano-microns, but viruses like the Covet 19 are 190 nano-microns...so they will not stop these from escaping through the mask.
This is information from an instructor in the military on biological warfare.
Not only are you not protecting others, you are leaving yourself at risk.....because you are thinking that the mask makes things safer for you.
All this u turn has not been because scientists believe that masks are now safer...it is because of political lobbying of the WHO.
But if you feel that you can wear a mask, put in on and take it off and dispose of it safely(once used it becomes a biohazard).
I have seen people with single use masks take them off and put them in their pocket....does this mean they are going to re-use it?
I hope not, but how do you know?
