What's worth a shot? Cornucopia machines turning out magic masks by magic?
THINK.
Where would the manufacturing capability for billions of masks come from if not "thin air?" Where would the distribution network come from if not thin air?
You can't share physical objects like n95 masks on your Facebook wall.

I'm not sure I believe that assumption... it still acts as a barrier and probably would still stop 95% of moisture droplets from being propelled more than an inch from your face.. We also don't propell anything from our eyes, only catch it... the key is to prevent the propellant of the virus.. even cheap masks would do that as it creates a barrier. a reply to: 0zzymand0s

I know many people who have stocked up on masks.. society would have to come together and share what they are not using... gaurantee you there are more than enough masks out there for every citizen. I'll make a prediction right now that when everyone is wondering how the Asian countries managed to stop this outbreak quickly in their country, one of the key factors will come down to the number of people wearing masks in public as the virus isn't PROPELLED from their face when breathing... even cheap masks will prevent that... seems logical when you think about it for a moment. reply to: 0zzymand0s

Wouldn’t you need 7 billion masks, daily? I think they’re wear once and dispose- the inside and outside will both be covered in germs...
