If we just lockdown for 15 days, we can beat this thing. If everyone would just wash their hands and social distance, we can beat this thing (still good ideas, folks, and don’t touch your face). If everyone would just wear a mask, we can beat this thing. Once we have herd immunity, through vaccines and recovering from COVID, we can beat this thing. And more. They keep finding ways to extend it out. Now?
The face mask that could end the pandemic
Getting Americans masked up is a top priority for the Biden Administration.
Biden, who calls wearing masks “a patriotic act,” signed an executive order Wednesday — his very first as president — to ask Americans to wear masks of their choice for the first 100 days of the new administration. The executive order also requires mask use on all federal property, though in this case, not just any old mask will do.
On Wednesday after the inauguration, White House press secretary Jen Psaki showed off her bright white N95 mask in the press briefing room. “I wore it out, of course, here today and will continue to do that,” Psaki said after removing her medical-grade mask and before turning to questions.
“After removing her medical-grade mask”, and not one complaint from CNN in this article, or any Credentialed Media out.
N95 masks are considered the gold standard in personal protective equipment because they block 95% of large and small particles utilizing a unique electrostatic filter (snip)
Studies have shown that masks significantly decrease the chances of transmitting or contracting the coronavirus. But not all masks provide equal protection. Depending on the fabric and number of layers, homemade and simple cloth masks have a range of effectiveness that can be as low as 26%, which leaves the wearer vulnerable.
But, they told us to just wear a mask, right? Any mask, as long as you had one on?
Some experts like Brigham Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School physician Dr. Abraar Karan have been advocating for public use of N95 masks from the start of the pandemic. In an interview with CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Dr. Karan outlined why N95s are critical at this stage of the pandemic. (snip)
The biggest problem is lack of supply. This week marked a full year of the coronavirus, and the Biden Administration has committed to invoking the Defense Production Act more often to boost manufacture of N95 masks and other critical supplies. Experts hope manufacturing will hit a speed to be able to sufficiently supply the population.
So, yeah, next up is keeping things locked down till these are all available, and then requiring everyone to wear one. Which are disposable, so, a new on each day. Not like your fun mask you wash. And they’ll say you cannot go anywhere without a medical grade mask. Even though they’ll still be in short supply.
On Wednesday after the inauguration, White House press secretary Jen Psaki showed off her bright white N95 mask in the press briefing room. “I wore it out, of course, here today and will continue to do that,†Psaki said after removing her medical-grade mask and before flashing her tits.
They were real and they were spectacular.

Recently they move so fast there’s a noticeable blue shift.
Our esteemed host quoted:
Hospitals and clinics and doctors offices have been screaming for more personal protective equipment since last March; does anyone seriously think that the production of N95 masks has not already been maximized by the producers?
To produce more, other facilities would have to be converted to medical supply manufacturing, the proper machines for manufacturing would have to be produced, a zillion inspections of new facilities would have to be performed, and maybe, just maybe, such facilities might start producing N95 masks by this summer.
But wait; we’re all s’posed to be vaccinated by then right?
Joe Biden signs an EO saying everyone on FEDERAL GROUNDS wears a mask always.
Then he and his entourage to to the Washington Monument and are tripping around WITHOUT MASKS.
HE IS IN A ROOM IN THE OVAL OFFICE signing those EO’s without a mask. Well he is on federal grounds. That should mean he has to sleep with a mask on.
But cheer up my friends. The Biden administration is owned by Wall Street and CORPORATIONS and BILLIONAIRES.
He is going to do very little. IN FACT THEY HAVE THE NUMBERS TO PASS MEDICARE FOR ALL AND WONT EVEN TAKE A VOTE ON IT>………..LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
The progressive LEFT is joining the Trumpers in rebellion against the ESTABLISHMENT LEFT AND RIGHT.
IN the MEANTIME they are proposing legislation to give people with children between 6-17 3000 a month based upon how many kids you have. JUST GIVE IT TO THEM…MAIL THEM A CHECK EVERY MONTH.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL….Huge incentive for the poor, hell for everyone to start cranking out those babies again.
GO for it left. Bankrupt the hell out of this country.
It will be particularly hilarious for YOU when you force us off the OIL STANDARD by eliminating most oil and then wonder why a gallon of milk costs 5000.00. Thats okay says AOC we can just print 5000x’s more money. What’s the big deal?
I’d point out that the President’s residence in the White House is federal property. Under Mr Biden’s order, he can’t even sleep with his wife without wearing a mask, can’t go to the bathroom without wearing a mask.
I have noticed that the lovely Jen Psaki, his spokeswench, has not been wearing a mask while at the press room podium.
no way they can produce and distribute 330 million masks in 100 days if they wanted everyone to wear one…and it would need to be at minimum 5 times that many so you weren’t stuck wearing the same nasty mask every day…
Those cloth masks are at least washable; the N95s are not.
