I weld, blacksmith, work wood, grind hay and grain, a mask is no big deal since I wear them all the time anyway.

You're supposed to take it out of the plastic packaging before you put it over your mouth and nose.

Since almost all of our medical supplies are manufactured in the province of China that suspended all manufacturing due to the Coronavirus, many hospitals have less than a month's worth of medical supplies. This is a crisis! Surgical gowns and other sterile supplies could run out within a month.

Quote:
The US Food and Drug Administration has contacted dozens of medical device manufacturers whose facilities in China may be at risk of creating shortages in the supply chain -- and indeed, some facilities have already been disrupted by the coronavirus outbreak.

Time to bring out the drones for deliveries.

That was charitable. He looked lost reading from notes in a monotone. You saw the difference when the stock market and attacking the Fed came up.

First and foremost this is going to hurt innocent people and families...that is what is truly at stake. Hopefully it does not materialize into a full blown pandemic...it's not looking good right now though. This will be a political football and Trump will not benefit from it if for any reason he espouses isolationist positions and wants to shut down borders and put up tariffs...this is a World Health Problem...it will need to be addressed with a globalist view of the world..we are all connected. I don't want Trump to be re-elected but I don't want it to be for this reason. People will lose loved ones.

I wonder what people with no health insurance will do. I guess they will hold out as long as they can, until they collapse somewhere.
