You can mandate all you want but if supply can't keep up with demand it's pretty much an empty mandate.

As soon as the CDC requested us to cover our faces, many people got to work and made home made masks. 100% cotton was the preferred material to use. Making a face covering with a bandana and two rubber bands was also being done by many. Even using paper towels, rubber bands and coffee filters were being used. Americans were and are very resourceful. If only we were to be trusted to handle THE TRUTH!!! Between covering our faces and social distancing, we could have avoided a shut down if the masking was mandated.
