More N95 mask questions

An article in the Washington post (Aaron Davis) was reprinted in the Globe on Sunday. This piece ties into the whistle-blower complaint made by Rick Bright, former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority. It was Jan 22nd when Michael Bowen's company, Prestige Ameritech, the last major domestic mask company in the country, got calls from around the world asking for N95 masks.
Mr. Bowen contacted the feds and offered to manufacture another 1.7 million N95 masks a week but was ignored by top administrators at Department of Health and Human services.

my editorial: I hope our country pays more attention to this and other companies who make PPE. We can no longer depend, nor should we have to begin with, on China for our critical health care supplies.

Unbelievable but I guess it shouldn't be with those we have in charge now

So can we hold these idiots responsible for the deaths of nurses and doctors who did not have the equipment they needed because of these jerks?

IMO, the question of who is responsible will be decided by the courts and probably not soon enough.
