Because surgical masks are intended to block YOU from spreading YOUR germs, which is a completely different scenario than breathing IN particles from the air. Are there seriously people who still don't get this?
Doctors don't wear masks during surgery to keep themselves safe, they do it for the patient. Crazy concept apparently.
