Excellent summary of current evidence — including evidence that a surgical mask is protective not only for others but to at least some extent for the wearer, as well.

I’ve referred back to this paper and shared it with people countless times since I first read it. Fantastic use of archived data and a really cool story.

So fantastic to see this out! Congrats!!!

Excited to be part of this program and for the opportunity to learn from Dr. Dana Philpott! Thank you IMPACTT Microbiome
