Coronavirus is smaller than the perforations of the mask.

Not effective.

Coronavirus travels on droplets which are larger than the perforations of the mask.

The virus has been shown to linger in the same area though, so this doesn't matter. Normal air flow and persistence will infect other people.

Don't know about Spain. In the USA, I see far too many people with their masks under their noses, or they're wearing a style of mask that's been shown to be almost useless. It seems like in Asian countries where it's almost all 3-ply surgical masks, and they actually keep their noses covered, cases are much lower.

1) Surprisingly, masks stop objects that are smaller than the perforations. Google mask tech specs.
2) Viruses are in a water bubbles even when airborne which makes it a lot bigger.

You're expelling air and droplets from your nose as well when you breathe, talk, cough, and sneeze. The sinus cavity is the primary reservoir for the virus. In terms of viral output, covering the mouth may help somewhat, but you're leaving the most vulnerable area for getting infected exposed.

covering the mouth already helps a lot. But you’re already wearing one, why no wear it properly?

I already cover my coughs and sneezes like a supreme gentleman. Are droplets seriously emitted from your nose at a similar rate to which they are emitted from your mouth?
