The efficacy of the masks and how a higher infectious virus will affect
First of all, thanks for the new smileys. ( makery This one obviously has a fever !).
The three common mask types "everyday mask", FFP2 and FFP3 are differently effective against inhaling and exhaling viruses.
The everyday mask "catches" about 50%, if it is worn correctly.
With the FFP2 it is up to more than 90 % and FFP3 goes towards 100 %.
This was true for the previous coronaviruses of the Wuhan type and the Italy type.
But now there are new virus mutations with up to 70 % faster infection.
Of course, this must be taken into account in the efficiency of the masks. Let's be optimistic and assume that the everyday mask will intercept the new virus at a rate of 25%. Well, then we are on the way to a veritable pandemic, despite masks !
But, I'm not a virologist, just a conspiracy theorist.
Merry Christmas and a healthy new year.
Let's hope that all conspiracy theorists are indeed as totally off the rails as the mainstream media proclaim !
