Yes, they are PPE - for a completely different job.
You have no way of knowing you do not have covid unless you have had a very recent negative test - 80% of infections are believed to be asymptomatic, and people who are asymptomatic cannot get NHS tests in the UK currently.
If I go into a shop with my strimmer headguard on, I would reasonably expect to be asked to leave... but it's PPE face-covering, and it is every bit as effective as a covid face-covering as your P3 mask is.0 -

And if we're getting into terminology, then I prefer "scientific fact and reality" to "propaganda". And, yes, I do buy into scientific fact and reality. You may differ.0 -

No, the only thing it means is that you don't understand the whole point of requiring mass wearing of facecoverings.
Or, seemingly, 80% of infections being asymptomatic.
