        https://dzhk.de/en/newsroom/news/latest-news/article/a-well-fitting-ffp2-mask-provides-almost-100-percent-protection-against-a-covid-19-infection I think the viruses are always bound in saliva and thus are always bound in particulates that are big enough to get caught by the ffp2 mask.

          No dude, viruses do not enter someones body only through the mouth, if you touch someone who has anything on him you can get it too no matter where that would be, so in short a mask is covering 1% of your whole body, the rest is still exposed therefore they do not help at all! its just reasoning nothing more

            Uuuhhhh, that’s why you wash your hands. And they exit through mouth and nose (specifically for respiratory illness like covid-19). So unless you touch your mouth and nose you should not have any amount of viruses on your hands. And touching your moth and nose, knowing you are potentially exposing yourself or others to a contagious virus, are things you shouldn’t do. It’s about protecting others maybe more than it is about protecting yourself.
