Its to stop the spread of aerosol droplets....
Something is better than nothing when you sneeze or cough.
Most masks and coverings are pretty useless at protecting you.
If you are concerned with catching something then a face fitting respirator mask with carbon filters to capture organics. Normally such masks will have several stages.
Also a full face mask will actually prevent you from touching your face which is clearly a major entry point to the body.
