🤣🤣🤣 why I’m I not surprised
I’m not sure? Why you’re you surprised?
😂🤣😂🤣 .. Not a surprise at all, go on wear two of them. From that perspective, cloth and surgical masks would also qualify as being inadequate….
Yes, is there gonna be a golden ticket in each effed up box?
Unacceptable.
You should have reported the brand names of these masks! Lack of sources.
“There’s no information. . . An investigation is now underway.” Consider listening.
3M
Yeah i clearly heard 3m
I wonder where those masks were made.
Knockoffville?
qweebec ?
you made them
Queefbec
My basement.
A mask is supposed to filter out what it is intended for . So if the real N95 mask filter size is 300nm how does it stop the WUHA FLUE VIRUS that is 100nm and this is fact look it up . So how does a couple pieces of cloth that is away porous than a N95 mask. SO HOW DOES IT WORK, IT CAN’T!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whoa. Easy on the caps lock. We’re all friends here. We’re only here to help. Shhhhhhhhhhhh……
Shhhhhhh……
There you go….. shhhhhhhhh….
@U Betcha you forgot the U in scuba
@U Betcha (I know what SCBA and CBRN masks are btw. I own 2. It was a joke 🎭)
something tends to be better than nothing.
@Ellenor Bjornsdottir most of the time, yes, you are absolutely correct
The chiness hard at work
They are not exactly counterfeit masks. They are dust masks intended for a different purpose.
And your point is?
Not sure. I assume they showed stock footage of n95s from hardware stores, which are legit, but not NIOSH certified for medical usage.
You are absolutely correct!. Finally, someone that has something constructive to say, and isn’t complaining about nonsense. Great job Beej! 😀👍
The Canadian government at all levels is laughably incompetent
@Mathieu Riesling wait a few election periods.. sure your term of lib conserv… will change if you look objectively :p
Governance knows no party… only the circumstances leading up to the bipolar flip of the voters
true
falls into thr premier hand
Sorry UKER
By all means: get out there and show them how it’s done then!
Wonder where they bought those faulty masks
Think government wouldnt be buying knock offs with their budget… but probably buying counterfeits and pocketing the reat
Or. Ya know. Bought them from a certain country and never checked.
Governments aren’t as efficient as you want to believe. Sometimes these weirdos even fly flags upside down on purpose.
@blupheonix44 definitely knoxkes off feom a certain country… the same one qe sent all of our ppe to before the crisis
Justin Trudeau is probably pocketing the money.
Counterfeit masks vs cloth masks… who are you trying to kid?
Wonder how many millions sock boy paid for them, or was he meant to buy this for a favor.
What difference does it make when wearing a homemade cloth mask supposedly does the same thing?
Know doubt. There wetardid
U must not wash yur clothes for months
And your wearing a blue cloth that has no rating but allows you to virtue signal
As soon as Covid went pandemic, everyone and their dog got busy exploiting the pandemic for profit and started making masks, hand sanitizer and other PPE. I am glad I bought 50 3M N95 masks, hand sanitizer, Lysol wipes and spray late January. Got my hands on another 20 3M N95s a week ago to replenish my supply. I don’t trust the current cloth masks and all the homebrew hand sanitizers out there.
What if macdonald came out and said “Some of our beefs may be pork”. Throw them all out, dont pay the supplier, fire the management team, prepare for lawsuit and etc. Reminder of how government throw money around thinking everything will be fixed.
It’s tough to virtue signal in a counterfeit mask.
Does it really make a difference when you can strap a sock to your face and that would be ok? Makes me question if this story is even true…
