One of the leaders in this fight so far has been industrial giant and N95 mask-maker extraordinaire 3M (NYSE:MMM). As The Wall Street Journal reports today before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic 3M was manufacturing about 50 million masks per month which was sufficient to meet the needs of industrial workers and medical professionals all around the world. Some of those masks are still going to industrial workers. However 90% of mask production is now going to healthcare workers to help combat the ongoing pandemic.

Michael Hurley CUPE’s Ontario Council of Hospital Unions president said on Thursday that all health-care workers should have the choice to wear N95 masks. He said the union is set to have more discussions with Ontario about expanding its directive.

In its continuing effort to help meet demand safe KN95 Mask 3M says it is working to double its global N95 mask production numbers once again to 200 million units monthly. Combined with additional production by companies such as Honeywell (NYSE:HON) and Owens & Minor (NYSE:OMI) this should get us to the 300 million total units that DHHS says we need to meet domestic demand -- but not for another year.

The general public should just avoid contracting the disease and follow or the procedures put across. The disease will be put at bay if people stay indoors and not hoping that masks will protect them.
