Quote:Can wearing a face mask protect you from the new coronavirus?
By Laura Geggel - Associate Editor a month ago
No, a regular surgical mask will not help you steer clear of the virus.
Doubtlessly more effective than praying but then, what isn't?
I don't understand people who wear masks but then go around touching stuff with their bare hands, like doornobs, ATM machines, money and all sorts of things. Seems like touching stuff and then touching their face even with a mask on can transmit germs, but I'm not a scientist so what do I know.
