I don't think we can draw any conclusions on source control through this paper. They specifically said:
"Although there appears to be some airflow escaping through the front of the surgical and N95 masks, this may not necessarily pose an infectious risk due to the various mechanical and electrostatic filtering mechanisms present in these masks."
...yet they didn't actually do a particle count, with any particle counter to confirm this. Thus, this isn't a very good paper to draw any conclusions about source control with face masks, since, last I checked, viruses are particles.⸺RandomStaplers 01:00, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
