Question

The COVID-19 virus particle (when it’s all by its lonesome without a water vapor buddy) has a diameter of 1.25 x 10-4 mm. Can the virus particle pass through the N95 mask?

Answer 1

No, the COVID-19 virus particle cannot pass through an N95 mask. The N95 mask is designed to filter out particles that are at least 0.3 microns in size. The diameter of the virus particle is much larger than the filtering capacity of the N95 mask, ensuring that it is effectively blocked and cannot pass through.
