Reply to comment by NethereseWyvern in New Nature study finds fungi and spore all over the filaments of an overused mask and demonstrates humid air filtration efficiency is compromised prolonged wearing - Title: "assessing the consequences of prolonged usage of disposable face masks" by IceGroundbreaking715

I actually came here because I designed a custom strapless mask (1 part to protect a wax handlebar moustache, 1 part cool looking) but I use it every time I went out; I was very interested in seeing if I could have been affecting my health in other ways (recurring exposure to fungi?) even though I sanitized it fairly regularly- so, different kind of exposure/overuse as well might apply? But sounds like maybe not worth the read?
