Not everyone who would like to wear a mask has the time, skills, patience, even just interest required to make one. However it is possible to purchase a variety of ready to wear online. This article links to some 35+ places offering them for sale. Really far more because some links, like for example Amazon Handmade and Etsy link to multiple sellers.

Anyhow the first on the list was, I think on the spendy side, but patience, there are links to more affordable shops too. It's never going to be inexpensive to get hands on a ready made mask if a person isn't able to get a donated one but I felt considering the money and time spent that goes into making them, some were fairly reasonable.

Also some retailers are donating so many masks to charity for each one sold. Other sellers could probably use monetary contributions to purchase supplies allowing even more to be sold at affordable prices or even donated to charitable organizations to be distributed free of charge to those in need.

Ok, maybe I am a bit weird but I have kept a daily death toll of this craziness. Is it just me or does anyone else notice John Hopkins is not releasing updates in a timely manner? Today they are saying only maybe 150-200 deaths when we average 1000 plus a day. Why when benchmarks (that would be 90,000) are going to be reached do they hold back on the numbers? This bastard (or someone) is messing with the numbers but why don't they understand it will all come out in the wash.

You could tell by how he stumbled awkwardly in his answer about if the doctor actually put him on it OR if he just decided to go on it on his own accord!

Kitsap County is one of 10 more counties that can apply to reopen early in ‘Phase Two.’

San Diego county in California just began phase 2 yesterday morning. I went to the beach and had a bit of a drive about in a couple of popular spots. So far so good.

The county applied for early opening to the governor and got the go ahead based on public behavior so far as well as testing numbers. With memorial weekend kicking off tomorrow I will probably stay out of the fray just because of the huge sense of relief most people are going to have. I can be patient.
