Does wearing a surgical mask protect other people from your cold or flu?

I believe that the holes in the surgical masks are too large relative from the bacteria or virus and cannot fully keep the cold from spreading or keep the cold away from you. The only way that a masks keeps the cold from spreading is when the bacteria hit the fabric and don't go through the holes.

It is not for long term use or reuse since it will lose its effectiveness, especially if it becomes moist.
