            Yes.
            One of the black reusable masks is quite thick. I can't imagine putting on 2 such masks.

                Are the free masks given by Tamasek Foundation cloth masks?

                  I've been mainly using the free masks given out by Temaek and PA. We also bought extra so we have been able to replace them. I'm keeping my double-layered home-made cloth masks as spares, but since we aren't going out much, I don't see I will need them.

                    They gave out different types are different times, and I didn't collect the latest lot, so I don't know the material. But the announcement specifically stated that those handed out by Temasek had good filtration capabilities.

                      When people suggest double-masking, it's usually a surgical mask (quite thin) with another kind of mask. Not 2 thick ones at the same time.

                      I would temper all the advice bandied about according to context of use. If wearing 2 masks is too uncomfortable, wearers are likely to remove them more often. Since the authorities have not issued general advice to double-mask, I won't except for exceptional circumstances. I might consider it if going to a hospital or places where I expect crowds (though I would just avoid those places unless essential), but not for quick trips to the supermarket or when walking around my neighbourhood.

                        Yup, the most recent distribution, MaskPlus Livinguard, wears well. But I still instruct my P4 to just completely stay home until such time
