The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has updated it guidance on the use of masks to reduce COVID-19 exposure risk. In its Jan. 14, 2022, update, the CDC clarified that:
In all cases, a mask should be a snug fit without gaps, comfortable and worn consistently when there is exposure risk. According to the CDC, loosely woven cloth masks provide the least protection, layered finely woven products offer more protection, well-fitting disposable surgical masks and KN95s offer even more protection, and well-fitting NIOSH-approved respirators (including N95s) offer the highest level of protection. Masks that have valves or vents, or are wet, dirty or made of thin fabric are not effective.
