"masks do not interfere with the flow of fresh air into the lungs, or restrict the exhale of CO2 back into the atmosphere?"

Correct. Ask a surgeon.

"and the viruses... and the bacteria?"
They're much bigger than a molecule of CO2, so they get stopped.

The SARS-CoV-2 virus particle is 100nm (nanometers) in diameter. A CO2 molecule is 0.33nm diameter.
