There's a lot of scientific merit to the idea that allergies and other kinds of immuno-disorders are caused by overly clean lifestyles, especially for children. So it's not a bad idea to be subjected to germs when you're a kid. Your immunesystem NEEDS pathogens to fight in order to recognize the actually harmful pathogens and toxins from the harmless. So if you're a kid and your home and your life is too clean, it's no wonder why your body might suddenly believe that ingesting peanuts is a massive threat to your body. Whereas if your body had to deal with a lot of germs and parasites at a young age, it won't confuse peanuts with something that's really harmful.

Wearing a mask for your own safety will do squat. The mask will trap some moisture from the air you exhale, which may contain virus particles. So you can only wear a mask to possibly protect others. It'll only work in a limited manner though. If you spend all day indoors, then the exhale which bleeds out from the edges of your mask will have mixed with the air that everyone else breathes anyway. It's really just a game of statistics, nothing more.
