Masks + vaccines + boosters = best protection against Omicron. When you wear a mask, you help protect yourself & others from COVID19. Choose a mask with the best fit, protection, and comfort for you. More:

Masks are made to contain droplets and particles you breathe, cough, or sneeze out. If they fit closely to the face, they can also provide you some protection from particles spread by others, including the virus that causes COVID-19.

Respirators are made to protect you by filtering the air and fitting closely on the face to filter out particles, including the virus that causes COVID-19. They can also contain droplets and particles you breathe, cough, or sneeze out so you do not spread them to others.Masks and respirators can provide different levels of protection depending on the type of mask and how they are used.

Whatever product you choose, it should provide a good fit and be comfortable enough when worn properly so that you can keep it on when you need to. Learn how to improve how well your mask protects you by visiting CDC’sA respirator has better filtration, and if worn properly the whole time it is in use, can provide a higher level of protection than a cloth or procedural mask. A mask or respirator will be less effective if it fits poorly or if you wear it improperly or take it off frequently.

When riding on planes, buses, trains, or other forms of public transportation*, especially if it is for a long period of time on crowded conveyances. When physical distancing is not possible or when you are in crowded indoor or outdoor public settings.Note: The options listed on this page may be used to fulfill the requirements of CDC’s

And what about people that have had covid? How much protection do they have?

know what is more effective? Not forcing people back to work and school.

I’m still not going to wear a mask

i choose none i am a free boy

But Fully Vaxed still get the Virus..

My Daughter Tiara Was Wrongfully Removed and put up for adoption because I reported Foster Children Placed With A Convicted Child Abuser who went to prison for hitting a little boy in the head with a crow bar

FACT: Continued mask wearing increases the bacterial load in your respiratory system. So you're going to put a mask on your child when they are at ZERO risk from Covid? This is child abuse and you need to turn off your TV NOW!!!

Fact both vaccinated and unvaccinated can spread the virus. Fact every known human corona virus is endemic. Fact: Covid has an over 99.5% survival rate. We live in America if you want a vaccine get it but not forced!

misinformation

How many people are still falling for this narrative? Surely, only the ignorant. Masks are for morons... many studies prove that now. You don't protect anyone, not even yourself.

MassGovernor Are you paying attention? Are you able to read this? Our numbers may be lowering in the state but we are still in the red. It’s up to you to issue a temporary indoor mask mandate to get this under control. Stop leaving it up to towns. Your leadership is worsening.

BS! I got vaccinated, boosted and wore a mask in public yet I still got Covid. There's no proof that getting vaccinated and boosted keeps one from 'getting as sick'.

Your best protection is a healthy immune system. Don't be fat. Don't be sedentary. Don't smoke. Don't eat processed food. Of course, that requires responsibility, which is anathema to many Americans these days.

Why even mention low filtration masks, especially cloth ones?

Great advice

The mask are a waste of time. I sneezed in a I-95 mask that flew straight through it. The mask are making people sicker! HouseGOP HouseDemocrats stop forcing us let us make our own choices!

Laughable and WRONG. The literal only form of inoculation is to get this virus. The vax does ZERO to protect. Why is this not common knowledge

Some relative comparisons of mask protection are more useful than the current “guidance.” If you are an adult and you can get an N95, wear it. N95sForAll

Vaccines & Boosters dont stop Covid !!! People still getting sick !!!

I wear masks, have the vaccine and the booster.....I still got Covid 😥

All bollocks.

China hide the truth and spread the virus BoycottBeijingOlympics

Tell this to Tennesse, please.

Floridians deserve leadership that works for working people - not the biggest corporations and Tallahassee insiders! Together we will clean up the swamp in our beautiful state by defeating Ron DeSantis and finally putting middle-class families, safety and health first! 🙏🇺🇸💪👍

so we gotta get 4 shots to still get covid & maybe die? no thanks

Mask up in crowded places and indoors. The virulence of this virus and its variants is different and vaccinated or not, wearing masks will help. Eventually, with precautions and vaccines and boosters, we wont need them. But we do now.

Um, no.

. FREE n95s for the LOW risk, HEALTHY able-bodied population who can leave their homes & HIGHLY likely to survive, as for HIGH risk, MOST VULNERABLE HOMEBOUND: NO MASKS FOR YOU! Discrimination against the disabled.

Still can’t see the bullshit you are shoveling! smh

Masks dont work... 😂

There's a new germ (primitive) coming! It's already been released by a volcano due to radiation and inter galactic solar storms. Survivors will need radiation suits.
