if your concern is corona, there's no need to do any of this for most people, most of the time (i.e., not a front-line worker). the likelihood of getting live corona on the mask is pretty low, and any corona that does get on the mask will die naturally overnight. certain situations like going to a party might warrant it, but in that case, just throw the mask away and use a new one next time.
if you're more worried about other bacteria and viruses, it's a little more relevant, but not much for most of us. despite the endless news coverage, it's just not worth worrying about unless you're often in elevated risk situations, like being a medical worker. just wash your hands occasionally (particularly after situations like going to the bathroom or handling raw meat).
And the reasons people ask for citations is what you are saying is very misleading. The CDC estimates that 45% of US Adults fall into these increased risk categories. So no, it's not just people fighting off cancer it's almost half the country.
> We estimated that 45.4% of US adults are at increased risk for complications from coronavirus disease because of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, hypertension, or cancer. Rates increased by age, from 19.8% for persons 18–29 years of age to 80.7% for persons >80 years of age, and varied by state, race/ethnicity, health insurance status, and employment.
none of that makes any difference. basically no one needs to disinfect masks, including those at elevated risk (emergency personnel and hospitals facing shortages the likeliest exceptions). just wear your mask at appropriate times (indoors when you can't distance from strangers for extended periods of time). regular folk don't need to do more than that.
You make a lot of claims here about how to properly protect oneself, and as matters as important as this one, citations should be considered strictly necessary.
