I asked hubby why his corporate office didn’t encourage employees wear masks, he told me it’s because the CDC said it is too dangerous because people don’t know how to use them properly increasing chance of infection. It’s ridiculous, but we live in a very litigious society.

Forget the fact you cannot even find them anymore since the bulk are made in (wait for it ... ) CHINA and they ain't shipping 'em here like they used to.

Those that are making it here FedGov is buying up as fast as they can.

Want to protect yourself from the Wuhan/China virus: wash your hands and don't touch your face, nose, ears or mouth with unclean hands.

The concept re: proper use of masks is not ridiculous. Once a mask is contaminated, it is now a direct vector to your nose and mouth. How does it get contaminated? With your hands when you keep readjusting the mask. When you remove the mask to eat, drink, etc., then don the mask again.

Masks do not replace the overwhelming need for common sense, good personal hygiene through obsessive hand washing in public locations and avoiding direct contact with people in public.
