The article you posted says N95 masks reduce respiratory viral infections by 54%.

Thanks for posting!

In sum, this study, the meta-analyses, randomized controlled trial described above,49,51 and laboratory data showing high filter efficiency and high achievable fit factors lead us to conclude that N95 FFRs offer superior protection from inhalable infectious aerosols likely to be encountered when caring for suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients.

...healthcare workers continuously wearing N95 FFRs were 54% less likely to experience respiratory viral infections than controls.
