I love visuals and good info since that helps me comprehend and retain the info better. As I watched this I was thinking of several questions to ask but as I continued watching they were all answered. I am going to have to send this to my sister who has been using cloth masks more than the N95s she has for regular use. I am not going to throw mine out or even attempt to clean them after watching this. I hope they keep the electrical aspect to them over time, or at least until this country starts making a lot more of them for the normal population. What ever happened to the War Production Act (or what ever it is called) that the fake prez supposedly signed? Has it been sitting on his desk for the last 3 months?
