Comments on: Escambia County Now Offer Free Hand Sanitizer Along With Free Masks http://www.northescambia.com/2020/07/escambia-county-now-offer-free-hand-sanitizer-along-with-free-masks Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Fri, 17 Apr 2026 18:41:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: David Huie Green http://www.northescambia.com/2020/07/escambia-county-now-offer-free-hand-sanitizer-along-with-free-masks/comment-page-1#comment-423714 David Huie Green Mon, 03 Aug 2020 13:12:34 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=411344#comment-423714 REGARDING: "why is it happening weeks before party primaries rather than back in March, or April, or May, or June, or most of July?" At least in March and April there was a shortage. Maybe after that the non-mask-related issue got shoved aside. There have definitely been folks wondering why they weren't supposed to wash their hands anymore. It seems there are quite a few who don't remember hygiene unless they are reminded daily.. Nobody is forcing people to accept the offer. REGARDING:

I know this as the county provided masks for the students on Naval Air Station Pensacola, which were greatly appreciated. I am not certain how big the bottles of hand sanitizer are but I appreciate the effort. The masks that are being provided are high quality reusable washable cotton masks.

If it were concerning to them to have these kinds of supplies in everyone's hands, why is it happening weeks before party primaries rather than back in March, or April, or May, or June, or most of July? Oh yeah, Jeff Bergosh was more concerned about himself not getting to go to the beach than his constituents' health because we hadn't seen too many Covid cases yet (iie. out of sight, out of mind). Pandemic and viruses don't care about politics; care for yourself and your community because government keeps falling all over itself to prove they don't. @EscambiaVoters Agreed, this looks and smells more like a campaign stunt than genuine outreach.

Up it to six per person, and then you might get more participation.

Wow, almost sounds like a campaign strategy to get votes. Why not give out 12 masks, one mask is good for one or two uses. I guess people should spend more on gas to go get a free mask than it cost to buy one. Come on Commissioners ! One mask and a small bottle of hand sanitizer with escambia county name on it.
