In his first trip out of Washington since late March, President Donald Trump on Tuesday visited a new mask production facility in Phoenix, Arizona, and took the opportunity to praise the “manufacturing might” of the facility to support healthcare workers amid the CCP virus pandemic.
The Honeywell International Inc. aerospace facility at Phoenix had in less than five weeks shifted from manufacturing aircraft engines to producing N95 respirator masks to supply the Strategic National Stockpile for health care and emergency services workers. N95 respirators are designed to filter 95 percent of airborne particles.
