Between government mandates and/ or free market demand for N95s, why do we still not have enough??? Going way out on a limb here when I assume an N95 is simpler to make than a ventilator.
(Not a pointed question at any individual.)
n95 masks should be discarded daily... so you’d need 300M per day... that would be one tall order. You can feasibly stretch out the frequency but you loose benefit as the fiber breaks down with use.
