I'd wear one and write on it.

How long can one wear "one" and it still be effective?
Can it be cleaned if done properly with care?

a doctor in china told me you have to use more than 1 per day when working in the hospital.
so that depends on how often you are in an environment that you will use a mask.
it just squeezes down at the nose so if it is just 30 minutes into a store, i suspect you can use it multiple times.

I deal with hazardous waste and spend a good amount of time wearing a full face respirator and with supplier air masks. We don’t even own other masks since they would be no help against anything other than asbestos. It all comes down to the micron size of a contaminant and the efficiency of the mask. The biggest weakness of masks I see people wearing is that there is no eye protection.

for those who wear glasses, you can buy cheap transparent side-shields that increases the amount of protection. not intended for virus prevention, but increases the amount of coverage.
