Shelves....LOL.

You need to stick to something you know a lot better than this and just retract your post.

You need to offer less snark and clearly state your point, which after 2 swipes I still don't get. Are you saying the N95 masks weren't available to the general public? I wondered about that at the time but read several articles claiming that they were, and that shops were all SOLDOUT.

Sold-Out Coronavirus N95 Face Masks Offer a Lesson in Price Gouging- Jan, 31

Lowes, Staples, and Amazon, whose warehouses have shelves, too. I assume they were available at other professional outlets. Don't painters and people who work around toxic gases use them?

There's no doubt that the whole pandemic response, as heroic as so many are acting, is still one giant mess of confusion.

The national leadership has created this chaos, almost seemingly on purpose -- the daily misinformation and contradicting messages, lack of real information, forcing states to compete against one another for supplies, etc.

We're seeing in Arizona that masks plus spontaneous adjustments in behavior in response to a surge in cases can make a big difference.
 
US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams said Tuesday that the country needs to lower the transmission rate of Covid-19 in order to reopen schools.

"What I want people to know is the biggest determinant of whether or not we can go back to school actually has little to nothing to do with the actual schools – it's your background transmission rate," Adams said, speaking on CBS This Morning. "And it's why we've told people constantly that if we want to get back to school, to worship, to regular life – folks need to wear face coverings, folks need to practice social distancing. Those public health measures are actually what's going to lower the transmission rate."

Adams added that lowering the transmission rate will also help keep teachers and the adults that live with school-age children safe.

"We know the risk is low to the actual students. But we know they can transmit to others. … We need to take measures to make sure we protect those who are vulnerable either because they are older or they have chronic medical conditions," Adams told CBS' Gayle King.

I'm not a fan of teachers' unions, but I think the issues they have raised are appropriate. And older teacher is at risk in a classroom in any area where there is widespread community transmission. The union is right to be protecting the health of its members.

I especially like their demand of defunding police as a pre req for returning
