Be prepared for the "they have 100 billion dollars - it's not enough" crowd to sour every good deed of the church.

Very true, and they are very sad. I will enjoy this while I can

Yep, after all there's still about $99,999,900,000.00 left to spend on humanitarian efforts.  🙄

I am sure Bill Gates and other extremely wealthy humanitarians get the same nonsense.

From SLT commenter:
"I would just point out that the "respirator mask" shown in the photo, is a basic dust mask that I can buy at Lowes or Harbor freight for less than a dollar.
I would guess that the Mormons paid about $0.30 per mask. Times 220,000 = $66,000. Total investment for this PR ploy, no more than $100,000.
A far cry from the $100 billion rainy day fund.
Let's hope that they saved some respirators to get
them through these "latter-days".
Oh, and let's not forget, the masks were made in China."

How much to charter the 2 airplanes? Those masks are 7.95 for a 3 pack and every store I checked was sold out. So if you know someone sitting on 1/4 milllion particulate masks I suggest they jump on it.

P.S. It's 20 hours flight time for Salt Lake City to Wuhan x 2 = 80 hours RT @ 20,000 per hour = 1.6 mil for 2 GS650

While the church was sending masks back to help this guy was sitting at his computer desk in his underwear in his mom's basement coated in cheeto dust. Let he who actually did something cast the first stone.
