[quote=Anonymous] Masks in hot and humid weather You add heat, humidity, probably months of more physical inactivity than usual because of social isolation and distancing, and now you mask up, it’s certainly going to make it a lot more difficult to breathe, which can lead to further respiratory complications. You also have a better chance of overheating when you’re wearing a mask when it’s this hot outside. Our body has several methods and mechanisms to help cool themselves down, sweating, etc. But one of them is through breathing out hot air, so if we’re, one, increasing our work of breathing because we’re breathing through a mask in the heat and the humidity, and then we’re unable to exhale hot air, then certainly overheating can occur. https://thewire.org/2020/06/dangers-of-wearing-masks-in-the-heat-and-humidity/[/quote]
