At this point if you’re wearing a mask to contain or prevent Covid. Respirator masks (IE N/KN95s) are the only way to go. Cloth isn’t doing much.

If you just like wearing cloth masks then carry on and look on Etsy

Just went to Germany where they don't even recognize non-rated masks

There are Etsy cloth masks that have a pocket to put in a paper towel and make it 3 layers. If you’re going to get a cloth mask make sure it has 3 layers.

I would just get a N95 and stop messing around.

Agreed, I also wear an N95, but if you want to wear a cloth mask, there is a safe option.

I agree, N95 is the best. I was commenting that for OP. If you really want a cloth mask then do it as safely as possible.
