" A surgical mask is correctly worn only one way. The blue side is liquid repellant to keep fluids from leaking through into your nasal cavity. It is worn on the outside. If it’s a standard 3 ply mask both outer and inner layers do not filter any bacteria. The filtration is done by the center layer.* The white side is designed to absorb exhaled fluids that would otherwise collect on the mask and decrease its effectiveness and to increase comfort. "
