First, let me say that I am not trying to start a debate; I am simply seeking information and trying to understand.
The CDC does not recommend the use of masks for influenza, which is also primarily spread by droplets. Why the difference?
What is different about the Coronavirus that masks help slow its transmission when they don't slow the transmission of influenza? One assumes there must some physical difference in the virus or in how it is spread?
Thank you in advance for any information you can provide.
