You are here talking specifically of N95 masks, not cloth masks, and this is only true for the very few that properly use masks. Doctors are required to not touch N95 mask and dispose of them after each use. Viruses can live for up to 24hrs on a mask and spread from you touching the mask then another surface. Covid survives for 30 seconds in sunlight, so wearing a mask outside is bad on balance as you breathe in your own CO2 and reduce oxygen intake which both have negative health effects (especially during exercise).
