Answer 1

Answer:Because N95 and surgical masks are scarce, it is best to sue face mask made from fabric. Compared to most fabric polyester is considered more effective

Explanation:A "good homemade mask" uses a dense material which traps "viral particles" but is breathable enough to withstand them.

Polyester is  a washable, comfortable, & tightly knitted fabric. This type of fabric wipes out your breath's moisture and also enables you to breathe freely

Polyester fabric filters nearly 80-99 per cent of the particles depending on their size.
