Apparently, you can even forget about them and leave $10million dollars worth of it out in the rain

Every mask I've ever bought has been sealed in plastic. What is rain going to hurt besides make the cardboard boxes fall apart?

Did you read the article? It wasn't just masks, it was PPE (gowns, goggles, etc)

His boss? Dana Stoehr, CEO of the nonprofit that runs the event center for the county.

DAN NOYES: "Why is all the stuff going to waste here?"

DANA STOEHR: "So, can you stop filming?"

DAN NOYES: "No, I work at Channel Seven, I need to ask questions."

DANA STOEHR: "I understand, but it's not going to waste. It's damaged. It was damaged."

DAN NOYES: "It was damaged or it's being damaged now?"

DANA STOEHR: "No, it was damaged in a previous storm."
Apparently, it can be damaged in a storm so, what are you talking about?

We have 4 workers in our house. If that mandate had stood we would have gone through those tests in one sitting.

Thankfully the OSHA mandate got shot down!

And for anyone thinking that you can board a cruise ship with one of these tests or go to a football stadium in California or New York showing one of the tests...think again.. those places don't take the home tests. Just a heads up.

My mistake. We're discussing test kits... I meant to type "test kits", not "masks". That should have been obvious, but... whatever.
