>How is this just starting?

I wonder if this is because of shortages of masks.

Thermal guns are not affected by shortages of masks.

That said, we probably don't have sufficient supplies of those on hand either.

Well ... they are certainly correlated.

There is no shortage of masks, just issues of procurement.

Masks are being sold to overseas buyers, so I assume they can resell them back to US entities at enormous markups.
