DUBLIN, Ireland — A doctor based in Dublin, Ireland, has debunked the idea that a face mask lowers oxygen levels. In fact, he’s shown that even wearing several has no effect.

This video shows Maitiu O Tuathail putting six masks on his face while recording his blood oxygen saturation levels.

As he puts on mask after mask, the meter shows a steady, and healthy, 98-99 percent.

O Tuathail posted the video on Twitter to address the misconception that face masks negatively affect oxygen levels.
