Models of mask effectiveness: 

Study 1, with 2000 nurses: https://jamanetwork.com/jou.../jama/article-abstract/2749214

Study 2, with 485 nurses: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/184819

Study 3, parents taking care of sick children: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19193267

Some data on how effective masks are at filtering: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2662779/
