On the 22nd August 2022 MSc student Ruben Vazquez Amos presented his on-going Masters work together with James Green written up in a paper entitled, "Effect of Face Masks on Speech Intelligiblity". Ruben showed that results from Head and Torso experiments did not agree with results fro actual people in terms of sound attenuation and were significantly different for speech intellgibility at critical important frequencies. More work will follow.
