Corporations are way out in front talking to employees in a meaningful way about Covid distancing and diversity issues.
I hope GOP leadership is taking into account that it’s not just the partisan folks and media driving the messaging to its partisan base, but that it has gone mainstream now.
Reistence and relying on old strategies could lead to a shocking election result.

The general rule of thumb is to throw out a disposable mask once it becomes damp or after every one time use, which ever comes first. In the case of a home made mask, you launder it with soap and water after every use or after you have worn it until it becomes damp.
I don't believe a study is necessary or why a study could, would or should be an issue for skeptics looking for excuses not to mask in indoor and confined public spaces.

I would imagine that regular people by and large aren't going to have a massive aversion to wearing a mask. If politicians are fooled into thinking that the loony tunes who we see protesting are 'mainstream', they're misreading the climate. Empty vessels making the most noise, and all that....

OldRetired people don't seem to like them as much.Which is kind of ironic, all things considered.

People with anxiety attacks must love wearing masks. Looks more inconspicuous than a paper bag.
I'm not so sure about repeated washing of a mask. Does washing separate the fibers, which then are further separated in the dryer? I don't know of course. But, the virus particles are so small, it can take an electron microscope to view them. That would mean even the tiniest gap between fibers could be a gateway for the nasty little virus particles.
Years ago, I had a spray to spray on the furnace filter, to increase efficiency. I suggest everyone spray their masks with furnace filter spray instead of washing and drying their mask.

Actually, just soak your home made cloth mask in diesel before and after you wear it. That will surely protect others from any viruses that happen to escape through your mask. Diesel will also protect you from others spraying viruses in the direction of your face.

Works perfect!
Makes my eyes water a bit, but other than that, I don't even draw flies anymore!So glad Renauda is back. Allows us all to take things seriously again.

Dr. George, I reckoned that would give you pause. As I already stated, a thorough wash and rinse in the laundry however would more than suffice. Maybe a dash of cleaning vinegar wouldn't hurt either?
I recommend (cheap) Scotch.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
