The Amazon Prime Washington Post ran a feel-good coronavirus story the other day.

It's about a factory in Kenya that was transformed overnight for making clothes to making 30,000

face masks a day. One of them had a hole in the nose for Joe Biden to wear.

Kenyan government officials believe that they're going to need about 50 million masks when the

virus peaks there. Unfortunately, the country doesn't have facilities to manufacture medical equipment.

Worse, they get out bid by larger nations that have more money and more leverage for purchases.

Until now, Kenya has been relying on the Chikoms to supply their medical device needs and

necessities forcing a change, though. The governor of the small county in Kenya concluded that they

import everything and they produce nothing, despite having plenty of resources at their disposal.

So in one week, they retrain 400 factory workers to make N95 masks. There's a lesson here.

For generations, the US led the world in manufacturing, including manufacturing medical devices.

Then Obamacare came along and one of the ways Obama decided to pay for that monstrosity

was with big taxes on medical devices. Predictively, a lot of that industry picked up and

moved its manufacturing over to China, the home of cheap labor. Now the whole world is learned that

relying on China for basic healthcare necessities, that's not so smart. It's time for a change in

America as well, and we can do it.
