There’s no such thing as Free. Those masks cost taxpayer money.

When will the next 400 million masks be given out? Those things must be replaced periodically.

I have a beard, they won’t work any better than the cloth or paper masks.

Three? If you follow the directions that’s about an hour and 20 minutes worth right?

Big deal. I was told everything from the government is free.

I believe every word they tell me. The last elections were the most carefully monitored with votes the most honestly counted in history. Welfare is a short term bridge from a temporary hard time to a better life of a new job and independence.

Wait. Those young men are coming to give me those mind drugs again. I don’t need them. I’m perfectly sane.

Only if you don’t touch them, while wearing.

Interestingly, I tried to order some decongestants that were in stock, from Walgreens last week, to be picked up.

I was told that no one could fill the order, then I tried to cancel the order and had to wait on hold for 15 minutes.

So, I somehow don’t think Walgreens is going to have the extra staff to run this program for Joe, anytime soon. JMHO

In WA state, they started mailing health care facilities, cloth masks, supplies etc back when it began. I figure this is how the laundry money to the politicians, by “paying” Chinese companies inflated prices and getting a kickback.

If the N95 mask has the little valve- it is ineffective against airborne droplets. I don’t know which ones the government is handing out. Regardless- they’re made in Chyna.

I called a CVS near my house to check on a prescription, and after 20 minutes on hold (I was doing other things and had the on-hold music going in the background) I drove to the store and went to the counter with the hold music still playing...a total of about 35 minutes and they never picked up.

Never got an apology at the counter either...just a surly “we’re busy”. On-hold times of this nature have become commonplace at this CVS.
