Michael Osterholm, director for the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, told CNN this week that people should upgrade from their cloth masks and bandanas to more heavy-duty masks — like N95s and K-N95s.
“We need to talk about better masking. We need to talk about N-95 respirators, which would do a lot for both people who are not yet vaccinated or not previously infected,” Osterholm told CNN. “Protecting them as well as keeping others who might become infected having been vaccinated from breathing out the virus.”
Osterholm said he has had issues with how masking has gone in the United States because people have not taken the best masks — like N95s — as seriously as cloth masks, according to The Hill.

Osterholm is the same guy who predicted 75,000 dead in Minnesota by I believe the end of 2020, as well as overflowing hospitals with people banging the doors begging for admission.
He was off by a factor of ten on his body count, and 21 hospitals and clinics in the Minneapolis - St. Paul metro alone had to close because of low usage.
