Multiple speakers on townhall claim KN95s given to teachers were not FDA approved/were counterfeit.
Is this true? |

| Of course not |

| Yes, this is a fact. All teachers, or ones with brains, do not trust what MCPS gives us, and buy our own pandemic gear. |

| Well, I’m not sure considering my school hadn’t received any masks yet by Thursday afternoon. |

Are you a teacher or do you just not believe teachers? |

| I had seen some MCPS people on Twitter complaining that the masks were "non-medical" but that's not the same fraudulent or useless. |

| The issue is not that the masks are non-medical. The issue is that they are on a list of masks that have been identified as fraudulent. |

| Ask yourself where MCPS could obtain a couple hundred thousand certified N95 masks on very short notice during the Omicron surge. |

| They aren’t cdc approved, are thin, and some have torn along the seam when opened. |

| Can someone with an actual mask tweet this to reporters please? Make an anonymous account, or be brave and just do it. MCPS needs to be called out. |

| I thought N95s were the ones that got approval, and KF95s were not — which is why you are only supposed to use N95s in medical settings. |

It is true, these are counterfeit. I never opened my mask and have the packing here:
Product Name: Particulate Respirator Shenzhen Ende Medical Tech Manufactured in China Model:EN-05 GB2626-2006 It’s NOT on the approved list of CDC approved kn95 masks. |

Is it what is pictured here? https://www.eu-esf.org/personal-protective-equipment/143-non-compliant?start=101 (do a find on the page for GB2626-2006) |

| I’d voice an opinion, but our school didn’t receive them… |

Heads should roll - this is not acceptable. Instead, whoever is responsible will likely receive a promotion to Central Office.
It would be funny on a sit com, but this is real.lufe, and is heinous. |
