CDC: “We don’t have enough masks for everyone please use social distancing or homemade masks so we can protect at-risk communities such as direct-contact healthcare workers until we can spin up supply.”

Just kidding....CDC, actually: “Masks don’t work unless you’re a healthcare worker. Everyone knows that masks don’t work. You’re too stupid to put on a mask correctly.....oh we have enough masks now? Guys masks work and you need to wear them”

You have to keep in mind how utterly retarded most people are. The first message would have them all still running out and getting masks. The second message at least keeps the retards from making a run on the masks.

Yeah, I'm not in favor of government lies, but when you look at the panic hoarding of toilet paper, I'm not surprised they would lie about masks. Can you imagine if the CDC had announced that masks worked and greatly reduced the risk of exposure? Shit, we'd have murders over masks by now.

They could simply make the masks behind the counter at shops and only allow 1 package (? Im not sure how they are sold.) per family/customer.

And they'd all be gone, with families all sending in children to buy them and shit.
