We asked 13 public health experts whether they double-mask. None of them do.

on the loose worldwide, experts told us they are clamping down on their own virus precautions: shortening trips to the grocery store, canceling flights, and avoiding crowds now more than ever.it's"common sense" for people to double-mask right now, most experts say they're not changing how they mask.

Double-masking is not always practical, either. Dr. Karen Landers, assistant state health officer at the Alabama Department of Public Health, experimented with double-masking: wearing a cotton mask on top of a surgical mask — but it didn't go smoothly. "If we start going into a strategy of wearing two masks, that is really not, in my opinion, better than wearing an appropriately constructed, layered mask that is correctly fitted and consistently worn."

When professor Linsey Marr, a leading expert on ventilation and viral transmission at Virginia Tech, goes to the grocery store, she wears a cloth mask with a special pocket for HEPA filters that trap small particles. Marr keeps a spare surgical mask and brace in her bag as backup, but she doesn't put two masks on her face at once.

Double-masking can be a good option, especially if you have one high-quality mask that you want to protect
