Honestly, the cheap paper dust masks would do more harm than good. Trapping a bubble of air in front of the mouth and nose while at the same time doing nothing to stop the virus particles.

You want protection against that, you need a minimum of a full face mask with a N95 filter or better.

That said, good luck finding any.. the filters are all made in Taiwan and Korea.
