If, anyone needs masks, wipes, liquid hand sanitizer etc.. Try, Ebay. Plenty to purchase, but at a very high cost. About, two weeks ago, costco online sanitizer products were all out of stock, so i started to check other related items and they were out of stock as well. One poster on another thread,stated, she bought a case of n95 masks. She, must of been a girl scout. I, would rather see all medical staff, caregivers, fire, and police receive all supplies. They are the warriors in this battle This, is a time for sensibility, and self control. Caring hearts, not to take advantage of your fellow man.

it was announced yesterday at press conference that gov't has 45 million - and MMM is contracted to produce 35 million a month for time being. at the same time the Surgeon General reminds people they are not generally needed.

I keep hearing Drs saying masks don't really help or prevent this virus anyway. All they do is help the user from spitting on others while talking. Germs can still get in/under the masks.

From the medical field; Masks do nothing to prevent you from getting anything. It does prevent others from getting it from you. And PS as I just posted on the other thread, 2 of my firends trips to Italy for May and June have been canceleld by their travel agents. No ones taking travel chances. Italy has this virus spreading bad.

@Shorty2U, I am booked for a cruise in April so I am getting daily updates from the cruiseline about travel. Besides China, Hong Kong, Macau, Iran and South Korea, they will not allow anyone to board a ship that has traveled to, from or through the Italian regions of Emilia-Romagna, Lombard and Veneto.

They are also doing health screenings for any guests who have traveled to, through or from Japan, Singapore, Thailand and all the other other regionas of Italy. If you present with a fever or low blood oximetry, you will not be allowed to board the ship.
