Quoting: optics [link to www.progearhealth.com (secure)] The last American manufacturer of surgical masks/ respirators has closed its retail storefront and will only be filling hospital orders for the forseeable future. While searching online I spoke to several large distributors and the picture I pieced together was: China basically manufactures all masks/ respirators***, and they will not allow any to be exported for at least the next 3-5 months, so the world outside China will not be restocked until July/ August (5-6 month delays). ** I imagine you can find some remaining inventory in random stores, but no more new will be entering the market. *** Taiwan is the other manufacturer, and their plan is the same as China's: no exports. Historically In hard times, we have been able to build our manufacturing infrastructure very fast when needed This could be the invent to bring back real jobs to our nations people. If supply chains are truly disrupted for any significant amount of time it will force the USA industry to emerge once again. This epidemic could be the best thing that happened to the USA worker Oxygen masks aren’t that special and a factory could be set up to make them within a month max |

Anyone else notice how most of these threads are disappearing faster than the virus is spreading? Wonder why the fear porn is spreading like wildfire on GLP? Most of the Coronavirus posts are being made by trinity and the mods using vpns Trinity is making huge amounts of money scaring the shit out of mentally ill people. Scaring people brings in more clicks ad revenue and dumbshits buying masks from this sites affiliate links on amazon. Trinity already got caught faking being a lab worker!! That’s why the 0-0-1 posts disappeared and proxies are being banned like crazy. Interesting theory. Anyway, the only mask that could be safe is one fitted to breath from a tank of compressed air/oxygen, with full eye covering. No cloth or charcoal mask is, going to stop a particle the size of a virus, from getting into your lungs/nasal. |

It's never right to price gouge others in an emergency. 'Not judging, it just doesn't feel right, or moral to be honest, to me. It’s a non sequitur. Ebay has a long list of people selling N95 masks for $1.99 each, or cases at a time that bring the price to just a little over $1.00 per mask. He can LIST them at anything he wants over $2, but that doesn’t mean he will sell them. . “Mental slavery is the worst form of slavery. It gives you the illusion of freedom, makes you trust, love, and defend your oppressor, while making an enemy of those who are trying to free you or open your eyes.” -Fiyah “None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.” -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe “You have been programmed to resist the very person that is here to set you free, from the prison of your Mind... You are not free... everything you are has been manufactured by Minds that have not your best interest. You are imprisoned by beliefs and not reality. Religions are mental programs to imprison your Mind.” -SOL |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 60935884 United States 02/19/2020 06:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My friend works in a hospital. I told her there will be mask shortages in hospitals soon. She told me today that they are already reporting problems getting them. This is scary given the fact that it hasn't even hit here yet. Quoting: Inquire Within We may end up being worse off than Wuhan hospitals that got clobbered with most of their doctors and staff getting infected. Working in healthcare here in the USA will be suicide-level hazardous without masks, gowns, eye protection, etc. That's because the Chinese keep buying up everything and having it sent over to them. I saw a post on linkedIn a few weeks back with China Telecom Americas (the USA presence of this Chinese telco) sending 10,000 masks from the USA to China. Then, you see articles like this. [link to www.msn.com (secure)] I also read an article about US medical mask manufacturers receiving huge orders from China to send all that we have. Trump needs to step in and stop this shit. We are going to need supplies here. If nothing else, then we should use them to barter for other missing items like the oxygen masks/respirators that this post mentions. It's not about being callous, cruel, or non-humanitarian. Rather, we need to protect our own citizens first. |
