Abstract
A communication privacy device helps contain the spread of viruses, bacteria, and other microbes that spread through human respiratory infection while allowing users to utilize a cellular communication device in a private manner. The communication privacy device includes a cup-shaped mask configured to fit over a user's mouth, and a transfer tube having a first end connected to an opening of the cup-shaped mask and a second end configured to be located near a receiver of a communication device. A filter covers the opening of the cup-shaped mask. The communication privacy device allows both speaking and listening with privacy since it acts as a barrier to both the user's voice to spread in the surrounding environment and outside noises to disturb the communication.
