I'm guessing trying to face away from people's faces probably helps somewhat, too? If someone breathes, sneezes, or coughs viroids in your general direction, I would naively guess it's riskier if it's in the direction of their face to your face. If it touches your back and neck, I'd imagine you're still at risk, but not to the same degree.

Can anyone verify if this logic makes sense? Or does it not really make a difference because it'll just float through the air and reach your face anyway?

This is why they were masks in Asia. The problem is we don’t have enough masks so we need to save them for healthcare workers.

The people in Hong Kong learned how to make their own and they work well. It's not hard and used readily available materials.
