Since COVID is really popping again, I'm going back to masking. I would wear KN95/N95s but those stink after a while and you can't wash it. Cloth masks aren't as effective but has to be better than nothing, right?
Is there any special type of mask which can be reused and washed while having ok protection against COVID?
3M Aura N95s that I stole from work. If you don't mind getting weird looks, you can wear a half-mask respirator with P100 filters (this is also assuming you're only doing it to protect yourself, since exhaust is usually completely unfiltered).
Cloth masks are basically worthless, especially when it comes to protecting yourself.
