The chemical residues of soap, fabric softener, etc. from the laundry and the dyes, microfibers and other things from the fabric are being inhaled with every breath you take. There are good reasons why medical masks are sterile, made from specialty paper and single use/disposable.

Staying home is so relaxing by comparison.

So far, I haven't harmed myself by wearing my cloth mask more than once. I will make sure that it is laundered frequently.
