A surgical mask won't do anything to keep you from contracting a viral disease. They're for keeping you from spreading your diseases. So says Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee. Among others.

If you can't find a mask, make a Red Neck mask out of coffee filters and Duct tape

Surgical masks won't cut it, we have 3M respirators with appropriate filters and safety eye wear. I have a low immune system and don't go out unless I need to. Having been "trained" and "certified" on infectious control I am a little ahead of the game. I have done this in real time situations and it is not pleasant. Blood born pathogens are fun to train for among other things.
