I put all of my disposable and cloth masks in the microwave 2-3 times a day and spray them with anti-bacterial solution. Good enough I think

I agree. This whole pandemic goes without a saying never let a good crisis go to waste as there are aways profits to be made in some form of any shape.

I do not need know virus killing mask as I have no intention to wear a mask all my life i rather wear a gas mask which a lot more effective than a cheap mask.

I feel the point of wearing a mask is not to stop you from catching it but to minimize the risk of you passing it on if you have it. Hence reducing the cycle, no?

Both, it makes more difficult for you to spread your droplets but also to catch other people's.

Nevertheless, valves in the masks are usually to let everything out so the mask are more confortable without any trapped humidity, but it also makes them useless to reduce the risks of spreading.
