We're so fucked, we can't even distribute supplies to people who can't leave their homes without giving them massive exposure risk. Not sure why it's so hard to buy some fucking masks and gloves for the warehouse

Are there any masks to buy? A lot of news articles are about governments seizing mask shipments. Furthermore, I think most masks are being allocated to hospitals.

So then what, should the warehouse be left operating under those circumstances... if even one person has COVID, they'll handle thousands of items a day and disperse them all over the country. That's a massive risk

Do we have some numbers on how long the novel coronavirus stays infectous on surfaces?

But that's closer to an in-vitro, number, right? It doesn't account for how transmissible it still is?
