      Again, I ask. Are masks getting made in large numbers and are they getting to the docs and nurses? Are grocery stores ordering them or are they afraid to take them from people on the front lines?

          Comprehensive explanation. For my #APEcon students confused about the timing relationship between supply & demand, this is why a demand shock causes a short run supply shock.

          Everyone in public should be wearing commercial or DIY masks. Where is Gal Gadot when you need her to take a message viral.

          Wondered why it's been so hard to ramp up production of surgical masks and respirators? Why haven't private companies flooded into the market to meet peak demand? Because they are regulated medical devices & new versions require FDA approval which can take months to obtain. 1/
