Because you could not get masks in March, they were sold out everywhere. Now people can buy masks easily. Wearing a thin single layer mask, helps keep your exhaled breath from going very far, so it protects others from you. Thicker 3 layer masks (sounding a lot like a N95 variety isn't it?) protects the wearer from others that don't take the proper precautions?
