In keeping with recent data attesting that the volume of exhaled viral particles is magnified in patients infected by the Omicron lineage, it seems advisable not only to reinforce a mask-wearing advice, but also to suggest that more efficient respirators (like N95 or similar) would be preferable to grant major protection against highly infective SARS-CoV-2 lineages such as Omicron.

Abstract
In keeping with recent data attesting that the volume of exhaled viral particles is magnified in patients infected by the Omicron lineage, it seems advisable not only to reinforce a mask-wearing advice, but also to suggest that more efficient respirators (like N95 or similar) would be preferable to grant major protection against highly infective SARS-CoV-2 lineages such as Omicron.
