Ford Respirators and Ventilators

I think you may be a bit off on your mortality rate but it was over 100 years ago, so you get a pass. It was also an H1N1 variant.

In other news, Harbor Freight is donating the respirators and nytril gloves they have in stock to the medical community. I never used their respirators but their gloves are top notch.

This whole thing falls directly on their shoulders, part of me thinks trumps tariffs were sinking the chinese economy and they wanted to take the rest of the world down with them.
