Upon further research, there are types with valves and without. If you want to protect other people and yourself, buy the non-valve type.

The N95s are mostly designed to protect the wearer, as you and your link say.

Any mask will catch or reduce the distance traveled by exhaled droplets, with varying effectiveness depending on materials and configuration, and most will reduce aerosolized virus spread.

Without a single COVID-19 death, Vietnam starts easing its coronavirus lockdown

... The communist-ruled country has sealed its borders, quarantined masses of people, used soldiers and police to track down potential infections and fined social media users for spreading misinformation. After deploying the full arsenal of a single-party state, the sprawling nation of 95 million people has now gone a full week without recording a new infection.

But despite their effectiveness, Vietnam's measures are not easily replicable. Its intolerance of dissent and ability to mobilize an entire security and political apparatus — steps more common in China — meant its campaign met little of the pushback seen in Western liberal democracies.

And experts caution that the fight isn't over. Starting Thursday, Vietnam allowed residents across the country to resume small gatherings and restarted buses, taxis and regular domestic flights for the first time in three weeks. But with much of Southeast Asia still under lockdown, people must continue wearing masks in public, gatherings of more than 20 remain off-limits, schools will stay closed for several more weeks and international flights are still grounded, officials said....
Interesting if accurate. Bigots were blaming Vietnam for infecting the crew of the USS Theodore Roosevelt during a port call, but this seems a lot less likely now. I would bet on normal rotation of an asymptomatic American crew member, or wherever it visited before Vietnam.

Satan hates humans: Deceiving, Accusing, Causing War. Rev 12:7-10
He wants us to die! Genesis 2:16-17, Genesis 3:4-5 Satan works to create mistrust and hostility between God and Humanity. He wants the hostility between God and Man to kill humans. He accuses and defames us. Job 1:1, 8-11. Even when we’re at our best, Satan tries to make God our enemy and bring separation between us. Then, when we’re at our worst, he highlights the truth so it will destroy us. He Tempts Us. Matthew 4:1-10. He tries to use good things in Creation, and our own human nature, to get us to use creation and ourselves in evil ways. He wants us to twist things to bring evil out of the good things God has made. He wants everything to be ruined, and he wants us to be the ones who ruin things.

God: Creating everything good, then bringing good even out of the evil that happens.
Satan: Creating nothing, and trying to bring evil out of every good thing.
He Likes to See Humans Degraded.
Mark 5:1-5 (Dangerous, Bound, Lonely, Self-Destructive)
Luke 13:11,16 (Bound)
Luke 22:3 (Totally used)
He lies to us. John 8:42-44. He uses God’s good gift of speech to spread misinformation—in a way totally calculated to make humans think and live in ways that are harmful and destructive to their relationship with God, their relationships with each other, their souls, and their bodies. His goal is to Steal, Kill, and Destroy. John 10:10. He wants to take what’s rightfully ours, to trample on our life, and to ruin what’s valuable. And he lies—to make himself seem like the giver of real life, and to get us to see God as the one who takes away our chance at abundant life.

Whatever happened to hydroxychloroquine?
Trump tones down the hydroxychloroquine hype

Faux Noise, too, "for reasons that remain unclear." As usual, the ovine Trumpettes and Faux Noise viewers have followed suit. My guess - It was always meant to create a short term impression of PINO as an effective savior when all the actual evidence contradicted that. Hydroxychloroquine was never going to be something for us to hold them accountable to. Purpose served, next.
From what I hear it made it nearly impossible for those people with conditions the medication does work on to get now. :cussing:
Yep.

Trump mum on hydroxychloroquine as early trials falter, but sick Americans still taking 'desperate measures' to fill prescriptions
Updated 0030 GMT April 23, 2020

Fox News Stars Trumpeted a Malaria Drug, Until They Didn’t

Fox News “stars”, PINO, Rush Limbaugh, Trumpettes and other right-wingers will never have the spine to admit they were wrong about hydroxychloroquine, nor to apologize to the needy hydroxychloroquine-taking patients and to the cautious scientists and others they attacked. Integrity and courage are not in their DNA.

Herr Cheetohead seems to think 1960's science fiction is the cure.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_--_Annihilate!
Kirk holds a senior staff meeting, asserting they must find a solution before the creatures reach the next inhabited planet, holding over a million people; a solution that doesn't kill the hosts. While using a computer, he realizes that they have not tried visible light as a means to defeat the creatures. An initial test of blinding light results in the death of the specimen in sick bay. Spock then volunteers to be exposed to an intense beam of light, without eye protection, to prove that a creature infecting a host can be killed. Though the test is successful, Spock is now blind. Analysis of the initial test shows that only ultraviolet light was necessary to kill the creature. The Enterprise floods the colony with ultraviolet light from an array of satellites, killing the creatures on the planet and purging the parasites from the survivors. As the Enterprise prepares to leave orbit, Spock reveals that his Vulcan inner eyelids had prevented permanent blindness and that he can see again.

Maybe we should try nuking the virus.
