We're not talking about FFP2/3 masks here, but simple masks that mostly prevent droplets produced by the wearer from spreading as far and slightly reduce the probability of inhaling the larger ones other people produce. Basically anything that covers mouth and nose.

We have totally given up on obtaining N95 grade masks?

The masks you are talking about, we already have citizens sewing them in a large-scale volunteer effort.

N95 masks, as far as I know, are fairly difficult to manufacture, so I think it's unlikely that we can scale up production to hundreds of millions per day. I'd be happy to be proven wrong though :)

I bet someone could develop a simple mask test everyone could even do at home.

(Let’s present solutions, HN. Don’t just tell people things won’t work.)

There are plenty of tutorials on how to make something like a surgery mask at home using basic sewing stuff or even oven paper.

These help with droplets and with reducing face touching.

I think this is done in Czech Republic at scale.
