Earlier this month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its recommendations, and noted that wearing two masks can be more effective in stopping the spread of COVID-19, especially when a cloth mask is worn over a disposable mask. In a recent report released by the CDC, when a fitted mask is worn over a medical procedure mask, it can potentially increase the wearer's protection from breathing in air particles that carry the virus by more than 90 percent.  Also people who wear glasses are three times less likely to catch the coronavirus because they don't rub their eyes as often.
