I’ve seen enough times people die of a severe viral pneumonia - without it ever turning into a bacterial one. Actually, we are much better at treating bacterial infections.

They could simply take used masks from patients - and take a smear from the inner side - after 2, 8 and 24 hours of use - and check the bacterial counts on that surface. If it jumps up sky high — then, the matter would warrant further investigation. Wouldn’t be all that hard to confirm - or rule out - such a likelihood. Dirt cheap too, as studies go.

In any case, change masks often. They’re a few cents each.
