There's a lot of info plus you're probably not as interested in it as me.  But, page 2, section 3 . . .

Quote:Masks can also be used for source control, which refers to blocking droplets ejected by the wearer, as well as PPE.

Also, last paragraph in section 3

Quote:In summary, there is laboratory-based evidence that household masks have some filtration capacity in the relevant droplet size range, as well some efficacy in blocking droplets and particles from the wearer. That is, these masks help people keep their droplets to themselves.

That's why people should cover their face in a nutshell.  It is a pretty simple message. But, we have done a horrible job of communicating that to the public.
