      I've been working on an N95 mask production project with a team for about a week now. We just got off the phone with NIOSH. They told us that approval for a new mask production facility in the US will take at minimum 45 days, but more likely 90. A lot of people are gonna die.https://twitter.com/EricLiptonNYT/status/1240467730689593344 …

      This is really shocking. We live in a nation of such wealth. And we have effectively run out of such a basic protective device at a moment of such need. CDC is offering advice on how medical staff can survive during a contagious disease outbreak without proper facemasks. Wow. pic.twitter.com/47of6BZQ9r

          FDA approval on the masks yesterday.100,000 delivered to a warehouse in LA on Tuesday next week owned by one of our vendors...whose business is not so good. We can bring in 500,000 every 5-7 days, delivered to LA. Not making much on these because we are air expressing them.

          Now is a good time to show some independent initiative. "But they are not waiting for federal funds to be awarded. UC Davis is using internal campus and primate center funds to get the work underway."https://www.ucdavis.edu/news/uc-davis-researchers-race-develop-coronavirus-solutions …
