Hydrating the respiratory tract: An alternative explanation why masks lower severity of COVID-19

Joseph M. Courtney et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that normal breathing inside facemasks results in an absorption-desorption cycle, leading to a significant increase in temperature and relative humidity of inspired air. The elevated humidity promotes mucociliary clearance of pathogens from the lungs, delaying and reducing infection of the lower respiratory tract. Further research on the potential therapeutic use of masks should be conducted.
