Has anyone else noted that most of the masks and all of the testing supplies come from China? How safe and reliable do you think these are?

I don't know but my wife insists that we eat at a Chinese restaurant at least once a month. I guess they are safe, more or less. :clap2:

Makes perfect sense to the current Administration, I guess.

After all, the virus was also made in China!

Boxes of masks prior to Covid came from China. Each year you were fitted for N-95 mask for TB. After a minute mask came off, and added to my collection of testers. Going back at least 5 years, only one was not Chinese.

Nearly everything we buy is made in China.

Yes, better we "beat to death" speed bumps, gates and poop scooping since they have only been discussed for the last ten years.:coolsmiley:

They get to make money by fixing it?

not all that much different from the planned obsolescence that the automobile industry and software/hardware industries designs into their product....they'll fix it for you when it breaks too

china's problem was that they didn't really build anything on their own

just try operating a PC with an 8 year old operating system

Maybe that's why none of it worked!

Maybe that's why I caught it standing in line for my 2nd shot, all masked up and socially distanced, and supposedly already more immune after my first shot than the 50% immunity conferred by a flu shot to the flu.

Hey... maybe Pfizer outsourced the vaccine production to China, too!
