Does a plastic face shield protect you and others as well as a mask?

You’ve probably seen someone wearing one in your neighborhood. It’s basically an individually sized salad bar sneeze guard attached to a headband.

If someone coughs in your face, a mask won’t protect your eyes, but a shield will.

In a recent coronavirus outbreak at hotel in Graubünden, Switzerland, only those workers who were wearing a face shield were exposed.

"It has been shown that only those employees who had plastic visors were infected. There was not a single infection among employees with a mask," Rudolf Leuthold, director of the cantonal health department in Graubünden, told The Local.
