In my opinion, yes, because I don't think they have done a proper hazard assessment and determined what is the proper personal protective equipment to protect somebody from this biological hazard. Even the Public Health Agency and the provincial health agencies will agree that cloth face masks and non-surgical face masks do not protect the wearer from a biological hazard such as COVID-19.
They help reduce the spread, because the persons who are wearing them are less likely to spread the virus if they are carriers. When we're talking personal protective equipment, it's designed to protect you against the hazard. Anything but an N95 mask or greater will not protect you against a biological hazard such as COVID-19.
