MEMPHIS, Tennessee —
Tuesday, Local 24 News learned new details about the Shelby County Health Department halting a free mask distribution program from the state for the time being.
After new reports questioned how the manufactured masks were treated with a chemical, local and state health experts stopped giving them out while they investigate.
More at link.
I was wary of repuke gov ordering masks for distribution. BTW, no order to wear masks in public & most do not wear masks.
This is Memphis area.
