As a result of the horrible air quality, the CDC posted an announcement on their Facebook page regarding the use of cloth masks in the areas most effective by smoke.
Isn’t that just adorable?
A quick Google search will tell us that smoke particles and debris are usually .4 to .7 microns in size. According to the CDC, cloth masks are not effective in stopping materials that size.
They just told us that smoke particulates are too small to be stopped by a cloth mask.
Another quick Google search will tell us that the Wuhan Virus is .12 microns in size, about a quarter in size of the smoke and fire debris particulate.
Even if we factor for the “respiratory droplets” (coughing and sneezing) that are allegedly to blame for the spread of coronavirus, those droplets are as small as .5 microns, or as small or smaller than smoke and fire debris particulate. These factors and figures aren’t hidden in some CDC vault that only their scientists are capable of accessing. Yet another quick Google search will show these figures within seconds.
