I see you still don't understand the mask thing. SMH.

government really doesn't have too much control over the disease. - No government has control over a disease - what a COMPETENT government with a COMPETENT LEADER does have control over are plans on how to respond to a disease...currently the U.S. does not have a competent leader and no plans on how to respond to the COVID-19 disease.

N95's are the only ones that work...
Mar 14, 2020 · A surgical N95 (also referred as a medical respirator) is recommended only for use by healthcare personnel (HCP) who need protection from both airborne and fluid hazards (e.g., splashes, sprays), These respirators are not used or needed outside of healthcare settings.

I never thought people could be so gullible. - rr, coming from you that is very funny!

That seems to be a huge escape clause for your hero Trumpy. And he needs one, since he has done very little.

So the cloth masks overlaid with nylon doesn't prevent moisture from escaping?

Yeah, let's rip off those useless masks, and have the infected cough mucus particles onto our faces. That will make things better.

That's what's frightening

BTW - did you ever come up with any Trumpy accomplishments the past 4 yrs. Or was it frightening to find none?

control over the disease."

And an incompetent one certainly doesn't!

When the mask thing was getting started, they were scarcer than toilet paper at the time. I knew I had a stack of paint masks in my toolbox and when I pulled them out, to my surprise, I found I had a stack of N95s. But then Pritzker says N95s are only supposed to be used by medical people and not the general public. That was right after he got duped out of around $15 million of Illinois taxpayer's money by some outfit in Shanghai selling counterfeit N95 masks. So how can I go about in public disobeying JB?

Fortunately I got a couple freebie masks from the farmer's supply (you know, knuckle dragging, science deniers who probably vote for Trump, like everyone in Illinois that lives west of Route 47). That held me over until the first week of June when I went to school in Tucson (where no one was wearing them) and I had a chance to swipe a stack from Warren Buffett.

Now the masks are easy to find, it's not an issue.

As for my N95s, they remain stashed. I'll save them in case things get crummier around myself or family.
