I have surgical style masks that I ordered a month ago.  I have another pack of 50 on order for a month from now, as well as a few KN-95 masks.  These were all through Amazon.

If you don't want to sew for yourself, you can get cloth masks on Etsy with much shorter shipping times.

Are you serious? South Korea got on the job starting day one, and kept the problem from getting started in the first place. That's no longer an option for us. If we had been testing, contact tracing and isolating back when the Donald was saying things would take care of themselves, we might have been able to do it here too.

Good luck getting him to acknowledge facts.

You still think he can learn?  You must be further gone than I thought.  

UP in the new age ethers

I even learned something from HIM today. Who knows, my good example could inspire him. Oh well, I dream on....
