Soap and water the same way you disinfect your hands.
But, theoretically if COVID got on the outside of your mask, you can put it in the washing machine or use soap and water and that will kill it.
These have silver imbedded into them. They are 3 ply and supposedly good for 15 washes before the silver wears away. But I'm going to use them way more than that if I can.
A dollar a mask that is 3ply is actually a decent price.

That said, the people out there who have no interest in wearing a covering to help others need to know that the "face covering doesn't protect you" line has been WAY overstated.A covering over your mouth and nose through a cloth covering or mask significantly reduces (not eliminates) your chance of inhaling a large viral load. That a single virus is smaller than the filtering capabilities of the covering is correct, but the reduction in total viral load inhaled is important in reducing the chances of getting, and if you do get it, the severity of the disease.
So wear the mask or covering to help yourself if you aren't interested in helping others. Its usefulness in protecting you is much better than zero.

Some of us like a little extra flavor.
There is no reason there is so much emphasis on N95 masks. Studies have shown there isn't much difference, if any, between wearing a N95 masks versus a procedure mask in terms of catching a respiratory illness. Both are just as effective.

So wear a mask, any kind of mask, to protect others and yourself.
I'll pass:
P.S. These are really well made and a bargain if you are a family of Lilliputians.
If they fit normal size adults than a five star rating would be in order.
