Sniper 6,369 Posted January 19 Another FREE giveaway (paid for by your tax dollars), get there quick, gonna be a hot item... ....."The Biden administration will begin making 400 million N95 masks available for free to Americans starting next week, now that federal officials are emphasizing their better protection against the omicron variant of COVID-19 over cloth face coverings. The White House announced Wednesday that the masks will come from the government’s Strategic National Stockpile, which has more than 750 million of the highly protective masks on hand. The masks will be available for pickup at pharmacies and community health centers across the country. They will begin shipping this week for distribution starting late next week, the White House said. This will be the largest distribution of free masks by the federal government to the public since the COVID-19 pandemic began. In early 2020, then-President Donald Trump’s administration considered and then shelved plans to send masks to all American at their homes. President Joe Biden embraced the initiative after facing mounting criticism this month over the inaccessibility — both in supply and cost — of N95 masks as the highly transmissible omicron variant swept across the country. https://www.nj.com/coronavirus/2022/01/biden-to-give-away-400m-n95-masks-starting-next-week.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So with 250 million adults in the US that's almost enough for 2 per person. N95 masks are not reusable so what are we going to do on Friday? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
