DHS Seizes 11 Million Counterfeit N95 Masks
The federal government has been cracking down on those looking to make a quick, illegal buck during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Department of Homeland Security announced that it has seized more than eleven million counterfeit 3M N95 respirator masks.
The protective gear, which were on their way to frontline health-care workers, were discovered over weekslong raids, according to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Just on Wednesday, hundreds of thousands of counterfeit masks were pinpointed in a warehouse on the East Coast.
The raids were conducted as part of Operation Stolen Promise, which was launched by Homeland Security last spring and partners across government and the private sector to investigate frauds related to the coronavirus pandemic.

Despite COVID-19, some say it s time to go back to school. Others respond not so fast.
“It’s 100% the right time to go back in the classroom,” she said.
Infection numbers are low for school-aged children, Bello said. Plus, remote learning is “taking a toll on kids.”
Bello’s mother, Nicole Lombardi, said that is the case for her daughter.
“It’s scary,” Lombardi said of emotional impacts on students from remote learning, especially for students who don’t have proper support at home.
Since last June, state education leaders have pushed school districts to safely get as many students back into classrooms as possible. Many districts have turned to hybrid learning, which puts half of a school s total number of students inside the building at a time, while the other half learns remotely. The two groups switch places weekly.
