Finally, some official guidance given by medical experts and the German government, which may shock some folks. Guidance given via N-TV.
First, if you use the cheaper paper-type mask (as I do)....it's basically good for a max of four hours. If the paper mask gets damp? Immediately dump it.
Second, washing your cotton cloth mask for re-use? You need to wash it at a minimum of 60 degree C. They even recommend 90 degrees C as the better temperature.
Third, filtered masks (the more expensive ones) reduce humidity intake.
The odds that Germans are conducting themselves with the mask instructions? Maybe a third of society....but there are a fair sum of Germans who use a paper-mask....over and over. I keep one mask in the car just for refueling or quick stops....it's been there for two months now.
