"And where are all these masks going to come from? There aren’t enough for those who truly need them."

The numbers needed for a national order for all to wear them are staggering. Where and when would such numbers be available? I haven't been able to find any locally or on line with less than about a projected delivery date of a month or more, as it is.

PDJT recently put some “heat” on the FDA for approval of a mask sterilization machine out of Ohio...approval was announced yesterday during the WH briefing. Masks can be reused 20 times with this procedure/machine:

One machine can do up to 80,000 masks per day. Machines already arrived in Ohio, New York, D.C., Florida? and soon Washington state.
