One more gem this time without a counter point…

Is it safe to use a face mask found on the sidewalk?

It is generally not safe to use a face mask that you find on the sidewalk because it is likely to be contaminated with germs and other substances. Face masks should be worn to protect you from respiratory droplets that may contain viruses and bacteria, but if the mask itself is dirty or contaminated, it may actually increase your risk of infection. In addition, it is important to wear a mask that fits properly and is made of materials that are suitable for the intended use, such as medical-grade masks or masks made of multiple layers of fabric. Therefore, it is best to use a new, clean face mask that has been properly stored and handled.
