3. There does seem to be a cost-effectiveness analysis and so we don’t know whether this is worth anyone’s time.
Well, when comparing a typical price for these masks (was ~50$, nowadays they are mostly sold out) times number of people with the damage to the economy caused by lockdowns and social distancing, you don’t relly need a calculator, do you? :)
I’ve also pointed out that they can be mass-produced, so distributing mask to everyone, at least in industrialized countries, should obviously be cost-effective.
I would be really curious to know how a mask like this could have a negative effect. Risk compensation should obviously considered, but otherwise I’m coming up blank.
