Amazon customers are horrified to discover face masks labeled as 'Based in USA' were actually made in WUHAN - the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak
2020-03-12
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • An Amazon listing for a pack of 50 face masks has been flooded with one-star reviews from people who bought them thinking that they were made in the US

  • The photo in the listing shows an American flag and the words 'Based in the USA'

  • But the label on the product itself indicates that it was manufactured at a plant in Wuhan, China - where the coronavirus outbreak began

  • 'I cannot think of a better or faster way to get the virus than ordering these masks,' one customer wrote in a review

  • The mask packs are sold by four different sellers for between $23 and $35

  • The two cheapest sellers say in the fine print that the product ships from China

#3  no evidence yet of any conovirus spread by packaged food

not likely to be any either as the virus doesn't survive long on a dry surface whether food or dry goods
