Just a couple days ago, my companys office in Korea offered to ship us 3,000,000 N95 masks, at cost, for use in one of our manufacturing plants to give our workers more confidence and protection and to keep them on the job. We also had the notion to donate some to our local school and hospital workers.
Korea (unlike the USA) apparently had the capacity to ramp up its production quickly.
But then I learned
1) the masks were certified CE (for use in EU nations) and not FDA certified, and
2) some hospital administrators we talked to said they wouldnt touch these because of fears of breaking Fed.gov regulations and also fears of ambulance chaser liability if anyone got sick wearing one.
So I told my Korean colleagues - thank you, but Im not getting involved in this mess . Welcome to 21st century America.
So we are still strangling in regulations and attorneys. Sigh. You should send this to Trump in some way it gets noticed {if possible}.
Someone needs to get your story to Tucker or Hannity...

Something like 20% of deaths are among medical and first responder staffs...
