Not even N-95 or N-99 will do that.
You would have to wear a P100 to get 99.9% protection in a mask that is not mechanically ventilated in a closed loop return within sealed suit.
It's about reducing the odds.
PLUS: If you wear and mask and I wear a mask, we have a herd reduction in expelled virus, so there is less overall floating about.
It's not about YOU
It's not about ME
It's about US.

Yep, this I believe to be true, if everyone wore a mask, in the presence of other people, it would reduce the amount of particles in the air, and virus infections, THIS is the reason authorities want us to wear a mask. I get it.
What I don’t get, is the situation I described, people believing they are safe from inhaling the virus if they wear a $.30 Home-Depot dust mask. It’s not only a false and potentially dangerous sense of security, humans should be smarter then that.
On my walk I fought the urge to run up to those people and yell: BOO!
