Our concern was the unevenness of it. For example, we had heard from one source that there were masks sitting at an airport, blocked, that couldn't get through some customs hurdle, or something such as that. I don't remember the specific date or details. However, it seemed to us as though there was an unevenness about it. Of course, part of that, we assumed from our own research and talking with people, is because some of these products come from places in other countries that themselves are shut down.
A key lesson from this going forward for all of us coming out of this is for personal protection, just as we do for firefighters and others, so that the stockpile is there when we need it.
