Japan supercomputer shows doubling masks offers little help preventing viral spread

Supercomputers have been proven wrong before, trust the science and Dr. Fauci!



Japanese supercomputer simulations showed that wearing two masks gave limited benefit in blocking viral spread compared with one properly fitted mask.

The findings in part contradict recent recommendations from the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that two masks were better than one at reducing a person's exposure to the coronavirus.

Using a single surgical-type mask, made of non-woven material, had 85% effectiveness in blocking particles when worn tightly around the nose and face. Adding a polyurethane mask on top boosted the effectiveness to just 89%.

"The performance of double masking simply does not add up", wrote the researchers, led by Makoto Tsubokura.
