        Not wearing masks is exponentially increasing the pileup at the hospitals, putting health care workers more at risk. We can manage the transition through rationing. Everyone would’ve been better off from the start if this had been the recommendation—with rationed distribution.

        There are not going to be sufficient #N95masks for this and for medical personnel. Please consider purchasing a Maine-made reusable/washable mask if you do not have the ability to make your own. Etsy has lots of options for #MaineRaising https://www.etsy.com/search?explicit=1&q=mask&page=1&order=most_relevant&locationQuery=Maine&ship_to=US&price_bucket=1 …

        The reference is, when you don't have enough masks shame people for wearing them, and when you get enough supplies shame them for not wearing them. The end.
