Ya, you can die from swallowing a toothpick too. Passing out from a mask is either a fluke, or a separate, serious underlying issue.

N95 masks? That's a pretty rigorous level of filtration. It's not a cloth mask. If someone isn't taking it off if they aren't getting enough oxygen it could lead to this kind of problem.

Rare? Sure. But so is a COVID death of a healthy young person.
