    It's nice to read some good news for a change, thanks to President Trump, VP Pence and the White House for expediting the process.

    Wait. An evil corporation producing 10 million facemasks per week?!? Shouldn’t the masks go through two years of government testing before any are sold to the public?

    Outstanding!

    Real proud of how well the private sector and Trump are working together.

    So the USA can start to promise delivery of 10 million face masks in a 5 weeks?

    I wouldn't mind seing a few specifications of these "face masks" to confirm of what they are promising.

    For quite some time (even before COVID-19), the "masks" often sold were hardly worth the paper they were stamped with.

    At least let's hope they are better than the promises Trump has put out every day.

    You're right. Let's wait for government to produce masks in five years and at ten times the cost.
