If the Masks Are Solid, People Wouldn’t Be Able to Breathe Properly
If the masks are completely solid, Dr. Chin-Hong said, people who wear them wouldn’t be able to breathe properly. Personally speaking, I generally use cloth masks for going out to the store or other activities but use surgical masks at the gym because I can breathe easier with them. Even with that routine, though, I sometimes feel stuffy in both masks and have to take them off for a few seconds to take a good long breath before putting them back on. I can’t imagine wearing a solid silver or gold mask through which air will not pass.
