I Spent A Day In The Coronavirus-Driven Feeding Frenzy Of N95 Mask Sellers And Buyers And This Is What I Learned:
In the interest of brevity, I’m going to summarize what I learned below and then jump into a bit more detail.
Millions of N95 masks have been available throughout the U.S., Canada and the UK during the pandemic, according to brokers trying to sell them.
The high price point per mask, driven by extreme demand, has contributed to an overwhelmed reaction among potential buyers, especially in the U.S.
Scrutiny surrounding these deals is high because of ongoing scams and claims of price-gouging, both of which are triggering emotionally charged reactions and fear of making deals.
Millions of masks are being purchased by foreign buyers and are leaving the country, according to the brokers, while the domestic need remains alarmingly high. "

It’s a shame Obama stabbed us in the back on this.
Trump had 3+ years to fix it, AND HE KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM before he took office.

Equivalent to Obama having left a "departing gift" in the toilet at the White House and Trump has been constipated for 3+ years because he didn't know how to push a handle.

The U.S. federal stockpile of N95 protective face masks was largely depleted during the 2009 swine flu outbreak and was not restocked.
However, the Obama administration was not solely responsible for the current shortage of masks.
In the intervening three years, the stockpile went unreplenished as the Trump administration failed to heed indications that dramatic shortages could occur.
