Nature medicine
Respiratory virus shedding in exhaled breath and efficacy of face masks
N=246

111 were infected by human (seasonal) coronavirus, influenza virus, rhinovirus

3 co-infected

We tested viral shedding in nasal swabs, throat swabs, respiratory droplet samples and aerosol samples

compared viruses in respiratory droplet samples and aerosol samples between with or without a face mask

Viral RNA was identified from respiratory droplets and aerosols for all three viruses

We detected coronavirus in respiratory droplets and aerosols in 4 of 10 of the samples collected without face masks

but did not detect any virus in respiratory droplets or aerosols collected from participants wearing face masks

We';ve now gotten 5 scientific reasons for wearing masks in this thread.

Even if you're dead they put a mask on you fyi.
Masks should be mandatory every winter no matter what. I could stop getting colds and flus.
