In Asia, actual decent factory-made masks seem to have been widely available for years. I would believe that the effects of people in Asia wearing masks sold in Asia is not the same as people in America wearing masks sold in America.
- philliphaydon 4y agoI don’t know what the quality of masks is like overseas but one thing you don’t see is cloth masks. If you do see them they are always over the top of an actual mask just for a fancy design. But never cloth only.
- nabakin 4y agoWhat is considered an actual mask here? N95, surgical, or something else?
- philliphaydon 4y agoSurgical Mask (3ply) and N95. Pretty much all masks are surgical 3ply now, at the start of covid it was quite hit and miss, alot of 'surgical' were not 3ply.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoHere in Spain there were lots of cloth masks. And I've never seen people wear two of any type.
- barry-cotter 4y agoPeople do not wear masks with a tight seal. Of the last 20 people I saw there were 19 cloth masks, one that is maybe capable of keeping a seal. Lots of chinstraps too. Shanghai.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoI don't know about America but every pack of masks I've bought in Europe has been made in China. Always comes with one of those little white papers with don't Chinese scribbles and a red star stamped on it. Even when the packaging is in the local language.
