Coronavirus: The state (California) had 21 million N95 masks stockpiled. All are expired.

By Matthias Gafni of SF Chronicle. Excerpt:

"As the coronavirus pandemic slammed into California and doctors and nurses sounded the alarm on a dire shortage of masks, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the release of the state’s emergency stockpile of 21 million N95 respirators.

What he didn’t mention then: They are all expired"

Looks like the rest is behind a pay wall.
