I almost had to take my Dad to the hospital from heat exhaustion or a heat stroke. While I was taking care of some business, he was monitoring some construction work that was being done on our property. He was using an N95 mask for HOURS apparently without taking it off. I asked him how he could of not just pulled it down onto his neck when he wasn't talking to workers, or not taken breaks away without it on, and he said he just had sort of forgot about it, and with talking to workers every so often he just left it on and forgot.
Because of this, he became ill, threw up, headache and was over heating. Thankfully some post-cool down treatments and rest were enough, but it could of been worse. He's in his 60's.
He became complacent with just wearing it and this was the result.
Fuck anyone that tells you to wear masks as you exercise, or in outside in hot heat, or anything else. Governors, mayors, councils, know NOTHING about viruses or masks.
Make sure your family is safe and make sure your parents and grandparents don't wind up possibly dead from overusing a mask in hot climates.
