They should plasma the heck out of his blood

It doesn't say that he got the Spanish Flu (although it is implied), only that he was alive when it happened.

I believe the reason CDC is not recommending it, is because doctors need it more.
I think any mask is a protective measure, ans there would be enough, they would encourage all of us to wear it.

WASHINGTON: Get ready for the face of America to change: CDC is mulling a change to its guidance to encourage people to wear face masks for a limited time, as Asian countries do.

And how will they manage to produce 500,000,000 masks a day?
I'm not who you think I am.

Right, that was my first thought about the headline. I suppose I'm an ebola, sars, mers, swine flu, and west nile survivor?
If you don't care why would you comment?

Big difference, Spanish flu was a global pandemic, all those you listed were not.
IINM 1/3 of the world caught the Spanish flu.

Obviously there's a difference but calling him a Spanish flu survivor is nothing but sensationalism.

Saw it docked at the cruise piers next to the Intrepid. Soldiers on hand. So is FEMA. Also saw today a huge tent hospital operation being erected in Central Park opposite Mount Sinai Hospital.

This is one way to ensure medical providers definitely won’t have sufficient masks, supplies are already so tight.

Make your own like my daughter is doing.

I want to make my own but can’t keep up with 500,000,000 a day.

There are billions of masks flooding the market now and it’s only going up. Mostly cheap ones. If everyone wore them, the Drs wouldn’t need a huge supply of good masks.

Why can't I find them if they are flooding the market?

A lot of the supply is still upstream, and a lot of it is going directly to hospitals/police etc. But still a lot of people started getting masks now that never had before. The ddms deal on masks last week is a sign of supply making its way here.
