At least you understand that those two things are different things, unlike Bob. You are, however, incorrect about the fact. South Korea had no blanket shut downs of businesses before their outbreak had already subsided. Masks and perhaps better attention to hygiene are the only obvious candidates for why Pacific Rim nations did better, though South Korea also benefited from an annual school shutdown that happened at a good time.
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.
Thanks for the tip. Esty is much faster. I ordered one for $18 and I should get it within 9 days with free shipping.
