In a recent discovery, it was found out that certain face masks listed on Amazon which claimed to be "based in USA" were actually manufactured in Wuhan, China itself! The whole point of people buying face masks is to stop the infection of the Coronavirus or Covid-19 itself and now that it has surfaced that some of these face masks come from the very source of the virus, it is a given that people will now draw away from purchasing these masks.

I’ll hang them in the sun for a day before I wear them.
Laced with the vid. I got some today made in the Peoples Republic.
Oh No!
We All Gonna Die!

best I can tell they are American made.
“...which claimed to be “based in USA”
Yeah, the CEO and accountants based in USA.
We All Gonna Die!
Yeah, probably not a big deal.
Now if this was a post from my own blog, that would be trouble! ;)
“Made in USA” is a merely a marketing phrase on Amazon. Amazon does not care. FTC does not care.
Half of the 3rd party sellers on Amazon are Chinese nationals living in China.
I would. I keep one on the dashboard to get a good blast of heat and sun.
One point is that people don't want to by things from China.
A lot of products are like that. They show an American flag and USA in big letters. You need to read the small wording to see it is ..partially assembled in the USA or packaged in the USA.
Sterilize them with a blowtorch.
Yeah, I saw some pretty disturbing videos early on from a mask factory in Wuhan.
Buyer beware!
Anyway, the masks are available at Amazon right now. Bgr.com shows which mask it is and has links to the Amazon page.
I fell for the “Based in the USA” crap because Amazon finally had masks available to be delivered in a few days with Prime.
How to destroy China is simple!
Europe and the USA and all developed nations must pull their manufacturing back home. Yes, our costs of goods and purchases will go up a lot. That is a hell of a lot better than what is going on now. If all developed nations did this China would collapse in 5 years.
Never forget that China locked down Wuhan but allowed international flights in and out of Whuan. They knew they had a pandemic in China. They knew they would take an economic hit that would leave them weakened. Thus they decided to make the best of it and give it to the entire world via flights from Whuan to the world.
THIS WAS THE FIRST ACT OF BIOLOGICAL WARFARE BY A NATION STATE IN HISTORY.
Or they say "US Stock" or "Shipped from USA" (or some such dodge). Another scam is their using the photo of a product that used to be made in the US but has since been offshored to China; they conveniently "forget" to change the photo to reflect the change.
We have cut down our Amazon purchases considerably in the last two months because we are getting better at doing our due diligence.
Lemme guess, their factory is in a bat cave.
bkmk
Order from Etsy. Mine came today from a vendor in Ohio.
All online sellers should be required to list country where product was made.
Likewise for ingredients. Packaged in USA, but whence the ingredients?
Same with pet foods. If the package says, “Manufactured for xxx”, it’s made in China.
