Like many others who stepped up during the #COVID19 crisis, we took the initiative to design a novel reusable mask solution, The Gill Mask (https://t.co/omRffdjWa4), when the virus hit Singapore early in the year. See how it works: https://t.co/eWemzF316F #GetUsPPE

This story is sadly much too common around the country. Feel for everyone involved, the hospital admins are out in a tough place because of the shortage, and of course the nurses and docs on the front lines.

In one version of her story, she is a selfless caregiver who chose her patient’s life over her own by rushing into his room without an N95. But staff at Hollywood Presbyterian say the reality is much bleaker.

Covid whistleblower Rick Bright says the U.S. has known about N95 mask shortage since 2007 https://t.co/XyeTiWypfZ

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

Interesting how the N95 has become the gold standard. There’s potential for even better filter materials to be developed. https://t.co/hvfrnJpfmQ

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

More innovation coming out of the crisis. Every mask counts!

[APLU @APLU_News]

Amid an acute global shortage of N95 masks caused by the #coronavirus pandemic, @UMNews developed an N95-like mask it is now testing with good results. https://t.co/6LbrKhiO5T

[King County Executives Braddock & Constantine @kcexec]

Q: I want to be extra-safe. Should I buy an N95 or surgical-grade mask?

A: Only if you work in health care or medicine. There is a serious shortage of PPE for health care workers. Medical masks should be reserved for those who are on the front lines working to protect us all.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@CoachBell88 @ajsmith For sure. We all got caught with our pants down, and then the response was haphazard. We could have used better leadership at both state and federal level, especially in a cohesive messaging as you pointed out.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@CoachBell88 @ajsmith Definitely see your point of view, it's valid for sure, we just have a different opinion. Realistically, there's no way the government can effective enforce mask wearing anyways, not logistically feasible. But, they should have the power when necessary in emergencies, like now

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@CoachBell88 @ajsmith Definitely agree that we can't rely on the government to implement restrictions, hence why we even created the Gill Mask, take matter into our own hands to protect ourselves.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@CoachBell88 @ajsmith Different interpretation of life, liberty, justice, freedom; all which require safety of citizens. Our tax dollars pay for police, fire, HHS, military, and lots of government orgs that keep us safe.

Individuals stepped up when our governments couldn’t get it done themselves.

@BNB_Bus_Stop @DavidBegnaud Exactly, the way they explain not having masks shortages is just change the rules of single-use masks.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

Come to think of it, a Hershey Kiss has a similar shape to a mask, so they might already have the molds to shape them. 😄

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@amberlynn491 @realDonaldTrump No mask shortage if you reuse a single-use mask, right?!? Amber, we providing our reusable Gill Mask (https://t.co/trEOtst5Sk) to nurses and docs at wholesale, it can be sterilized for reuse.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@brunobruno17171 You know what else leads to oxygen shortage, suffocation, respiration trouble, & heart attacks? Coronavirus.

[Gill Mask @TheGillMask]

@fhw1206 @DavidBegnaud Seriously, no shortage if you just wear a single use mask over and over and over....
