The United States' top doctor has one simple request: Stop buying face masks.
U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams' message, posted to Twitter on Saturday, was a response to face mask shortages as people stocked up due to coronavirus concerns.
"Seriously people," he began, and though it's a tweet, you can almost hear the exasperation in his plea. "STOP BUYING MASKS!"
"They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching #Coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can't get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our communities at risk!" he continued.

If our government says do not buy then you need to stock up. Never trust a government
The left wing nutcase news media is grossly over blowing this.
Compared to swine flu this is NOTHING!

I agree 100%
I bought 2 boxes of them and over paid for them.
Glad to have them.

Announcement! Do not try to occupy the emergency boats / rafts. There is no danger.. Can't you hear the orchestra playing? Enjoy the music
if they won't protect the general public, how are health care workers protected?
Lol
I had a doctor appt today....a 6 month check up
several people in waiting room had masks on
they are so gullible by TV chit
I don't understand, if the face masks are not effective and if we buy them up and the health care workers can't get them, what difference does it make.? If the masks are not effective then why do we have to make sure that the healthcare workers have them?
If they are not effective why are they still made and sold?
Doctors on tv say DON"T wear masks !!! Who knows what ??
