So Laredo is now going to fine anyone who is not wearing a mask outside of their home 180 days in jail or up to 1000 dollars.

Great, just one problem, no masks anywhere in Laredo. So does anyone know where I can procure some masks for essential employees in Laredo?

We are a 3M distributor however they will not sell any masks to non-hospital entities until they can get caught up. Dumb on us I guess but we donated all of the masks we had last week not realizing that Laredo would do this.

A bandana should suffice for this when no masks are availabe. Just dont wear the incorrect color.

Don't see anything about the 180 days in jail. Just up to a 1000 fine.

Does it specify the type of mask?

Someone was asking earlier on another thread, but along this line of reasoning, would a buff, or something like it, be effective at all? Many of us that fish or hunt, have lots of them, and I would put mine to use, if helpful. I do not have masks available nor do I expect to find them locally.

But as abbot already hunkered down with Austin, can they overstep the state here?

This worked with a bandana for me, just took a bit of adjusting with the bands (I used 2 on each side instead of one)

I doubt it had to be N-95. Just something that covers nose and mouth

With my Western hat on and bandana on my face, I'm going to look like an old West bank or train robber. Yeehaw!

They might want to check with the Governor's office because his order yesterday is supposed to be the limit of what can be done.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Thanks for replies I am sending some buffs to them to get by for now. The ordinance says any face covering, my guys told me they heard jail.

I thought the Gov also limited but Laredo council didn't listen I guess.

I don't think these buffs will do anything, but if Laredo city government is good with it then so be it

Read the ordinance closely. It'll be fine.

Full disclosure, I'm from there, both parents still live there along with my extended family.

That being said, the city council meetings have been a complete sheetshow.

Gov verbally said that cities could have different rules on areas his rule did not address.

If you don't have a buff you could just take an old t-shirt and:

1) rip/cut the sleeves off.
2) Slip the sleeve over your head and onto your nose and mouth
3) ???
4) Profit

Now I'm going to dig around for an old Crown bag and make a mask!

I think even the infinity scarves that so many of us women have could be used this way and just washed.
Guys you can borrow if you don't minds being girly.
