Biden Administration Considers Plan to Send Masks to All Americans

As the coronavirus death toll continues to rise, President Joe Biden's administration is reportedly considering sending face masks to every American household. Although a decision memo hasn't gone through the policy process and a proposal hasn’t reached the presiden'’s desk, a White House official told NBC News the idea has been raised in several meetings among Biden's top health experts and the Covid-19 Response Team is evaluating the logistics of mailing out millions of face coverings.

At this time, details of the possible proposal remain unclear, including when the face coverings would be sent, how many would be delivered to each household, and whether they would be disposable or made of cloth. A cost of such a large-scale masking effort is also not yet clear. While White House press secretary Jen Psaki in a statement, "there are a range of options on the table to help protect more Americans from the coronavirus and encourage people to mask up, but no decision has been made," three people familiar with the discussions told the new source sending face masks directly to Americans is being considered.

Probably infected with china virus. No thanks. This idiot has dementia. Everyone wants a $1400 check and he sends masks.

How many Americans do not have a face masks. Not ally wear them but I bet a very small % do not have one.

How stupid is this idea.

Note how the libtard media has said nothing about the incredible waste problem being generated by all these masks.

What a joke. This is not leadership.

This is sophomoric high school stuff.

Send a mask, that doesn't stop the China virus, to everyone in the US, wasting taxpayer money, just to make it look like you're doing something.

Knowing Biden, he's probably making a deal with China to have them manufacture the masks.

Don't forget to send the "big guy" his cut.

Ask the Indians how free blankets from the government helped spread disease.

This is an issue that the free market has already worked out. If you go shopping and forget your mask, many stores will give you one. Plus, they are for sale everywhere. But I guess giving out a free mask to everyone is cheaper than returning $1400 of our tax money, and allows Biden to give more $$ to his cronies and special interest groups.

The test kits for detecting the nation’s earliest cases of the novel coronavirus failed because of “likely” contamination at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, whose scientists did not thoroughly check the kits despite “anomalies” during manufacturing, according to a new federal review.

I keep looking for the ‘gag’ symbol but then I remember what kind of juveniles we are dealing with.

I used to have an inspector stop by the job the same time every other day so I set it up that he could find something ‘wrong’ very early, already had a man set up to rectify the ‘problem’ and when the inspector pointed it out and I immediately solved it for him he would get in his truck, drive off figuring he had accomplished something.

OTOH, had I ‘argued’ with him he would have pestered me non-stop.

This is what this admin is doing to us...Trying to make us believe they are doing their ‘job’.
