Frontline Doctors Summit: Surgeon Explains Mask Science vs. Myth
Mexican researchers have created a mask to be worn on your nose while you’re eating and drinking to decrease the risk of catching COVID-19.
A Reuters report states the researchers believe the nose mask will provide “some” protection from the virus while eating meals. They say removing masks to eat and drink leaves people vulnerable to catching the disease.
According to Johns Hopkins University in the U.S.A., cells that give people a sense of smell are a key entry point for coronavirus, making nose coverings like these important.
However, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends people wear a face mask that covers the nose, mouth, and chin.

This isn’t the first ridiculous concept developed in order to enable people to wear masks while eating. The Daily Caller points out that last year, an Israeli company created a mask with a “lever-operated opening” that can open while diners take bites and then close while they chew.
How long will it be until Dr. Anthony Fauci and the CDC advocate for double nose-only masks to be worn while dining?
