A member asked:

I noticed that every time i put on my surgical mask, and i sigh really hard, i can feel my breath coming out of the side of my mask. ive been using the same type of mask since pandemic started, is that safe though..? what can i do to make it safer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Standard cloth or paper masks work poorly at best. The best mask is the N95 respirator, and plastic face shields work well also, so your safest approach is to combine both.
