In this study, we discuss the impacts of assortative mixing by mask-wearing on the effectiveness of mask use in suppressing the propagation of epidemics. We employ the mask model, which is an epidemic model involving mask wearers and non-mask wearers. We derive the occurrence probability and mean si...
