a behind the scenes look
Or do what the Vietnamese are doing.
Make them.
A very large number of masks here now, are actually made to be washed and re-used.
It would be a good idea to identify the factory, country and brand name for which they are being made.
It’s so hot in that sweatshop the employees can barely stand wearing clothes.
Banks here often have rules, no hats, sunglasses, face covering(bandanas and the like). Wonder how they are on facemasks today?
I wore a bandana over my face and went into the local bank.
To keep my hands from getting infected, I just pointed with my finger inside my coat and said in a loud, muffled voice "I need some money right now."
Don't know why they arrested me. Something about "non-essential" business.
Simple, lobbies are closed. Use the drive-through only. That’s what I found.
Further, what I have been noticing with increasing frequency, is people wearing two masks.
Maybe a thin one, with a better filter.
Then a sturdier one, on the outside.
Yep, same here. Drive-thru tellers only.
Thing is: a mask or scarf doesn’t cover the eyes which is also an entry point for virus’ ...
I suggest looking up how to make a homemade mask by using three sheets of paper towel.
If anyone comes across a pattern, post it here. Lot of people still have sewing machines.
“Simple, lobbies are closed. Use the drive-through only. That’s what I found.”
Haven’t seen that here, and I know I don’t want to talk bank business over a drive-thru intercom anyway. :-)

They are closed to walk in
Not every where. I was in Walmart today and the branch bank
inside had three people working in it. Now they don’t have
a drive thru so maybe that is why.
Go to Etsy.com and specify shop location USA. There are a whole bunch of home seamstresses making and selling masks. It’s a good way to support an American trying to make some extra $.
When you specify USA location, also check out the info on the shop before you buy, because there are some sellers on Etsy that are really companies, not people working from home. Who knows where their products come from. You can tell the home businesses from the others by clicking on the shop name and reading about it.
