MAIN ARGUMENT FOR THE USE OF A MASK BY THE HAND: The effectiveness of self-made masks for personal protection is partial, but they are necessary to slow the spread of the virus to the public. The main result of our research is that such masks stop about 95-100% of the viruses that are released by humans when breathing, sneezing and coughing. The person is most contagious in the first days of the disease, when he has no symptoms, so we need masks for all occasions.
We successfully tested this idea at two major technical universities, and such masks were strongly recommended by the COVID CZECHIA team of experts working within the coordination council of the President of the Czech Technical University in Prague. The team consists of a virologist, an epidemiologist, doctors with a specialization in population protection, chemists and a physicist with a specialization in filtration. This group is an advisory expert group to the Czech Government in Prague. currently wearing masks is mandatory across the country.
Please support and help spread the core recommendation that can save lives and slow down a pandemic. # Masks4All: "I'm protecting you and you're protecting me."

Scientific Studies
- "We conclude that population-wide use of face masks could make an important contribution in delaying an influenza pandemic. Mask use also reduces the reproduction number, possibly even to levels sufficient for containing an influenza outbreak." Brienen, Nicole CJ, et al. "The effect of mask use on the spread of influenza during a pandemic." Risk Analysis: An International Journal 30.8 (2010): 1210-1218."
- "Any type of general mask use is likely to decrease viral exposure and infection risk on a population level, in spite of imperfect fit and imperfect adherence, personal respirators providing most protection." - van der Sande, M., Teunis, P., & Sabel, R. (2008). Professional and home-made face masks reduce exposure to respiratory infections among the general population. PLoS One, 3(7).
