I'd like to see a source that they do not protect from incoming droplets. This seems to be completely false.

  Surgeon General sufficient for you? Masks still contain droplet, at least reduce them so even DIY paper towel masks help. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/29/health/coronavirus-n95-face-masks.html https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/29/health/coronavirus-n95-fa...

    This seems to be a source that they do protect from incoming droplets. The question was who's officially claiming that they don't mitigate, even moderately, this risk vector.

    Masks work, but needs to be disinfected when you get home. (Using steam. Microwave, a plate of water, mask above the water, 3 minutes is the minimum with steam bags, so let's try 10 minutes without bag.)
