    They seem to be sold out all over the world. I have relatives in the middle of some tiny towns in the American Midwest reporting the same thing.

    I just finished "looking around" online, seems to be the case. Other places here selling nice N95s for just under $30/ea which is pretty painful (relatively speaking). Lessons learned from SARS et al I guess, I'm old enough to have been part of that scare too.

    By most accounts I've read the N95s can be useful, but washing your hands is still a more effective deterrent. They're not selling out of soap anytime soon.

    Ever since the 2003 SARS scare I've been an annoyingly thorough hand-washer so no worries on that front, haha. Still, doesn't hurt to have an extra layer of insulation against the elements— if not coronaviruses both novel and known then against general pollution, which is far from scarce here.
