Which masks protect against delta COVID-19 variant?
Fox News
The CDC is expected to advise fully vaccinated Americans to resume wearing masks while indoors in certain public settings amid a rise in COVID-19 cases largely due to the delta variant.
"It’s not more airborne and it’s not more likely to be permeable to a mask," Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former FDA commissioner, told CBS’s "Face the Nation." "The quality of the mask does matter. So if you can get your hands on a KN95 or N95 mask, that’s going to afford you a lot more protection." Both masks are designed to filter 95% of particles entering the mask. KN95 masks are manufactured in China.More Related News
