A novel method for the quantitative assessment of the fitted containment efficiency of face coverings
BACKGROUND: Face masks reduce disease transmission by protecting the wearer from inhaled pathogens and reducing the emission of infectious aerosols. Although methods quantifying efficiency for wearer protection are established, current methods for assessing face mask containment efficiency rely on m...
