China is really coming back to life. Lots of believable reports of more people living normal lives in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen. I'm optimistic that masks, reasonably strict social distancing, and a watchful eye for new outbreaks can work until we get a vaccine.

I think there are in China. One of my suppliers tried to sell me some this week.

But how quickly can Europe and North America ramp up?

Hard to say. Looks likely that the non-China response to this virus will be much more chaotic. If China has excess capacity, they will sell us masks.

How many masks will be needed globally 8 weeks from now? 3-4 billion each day? Can global manufacturing ramp up that quicky? And in absence of sufficient masks, doesn't the only solution seems like more social distancing and/or lock downs?

Dunno. Africa and parts of South America won't get masks so your number is too high. China knows how to ramp shit up my man.
