Bright told Congress that doctors and nurses got substandard foreign N95 medical masks.

Dr. Rick Bright, the former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, told Congress on Thursday that the federal government obtained substandard foreign masks that do not keep medical workers safe from COVID-19.

Bright was asked by Rep. Kathy Castor (D-FL) at a House Committee on Energy and Commerce's health subcommittee hearing about the consequences of the Trump administration's monthslong delay in mounting an aggressive response to the pandemic. Bright answered that, "lives were endangered, and I believe lives were lost."

"Not only that, they were forced to procure the supplies from other countries, without the right quality standards," Bright said. "So even our doctors and nurses in the hospitals today are wearing N95-marked masks from other countries, that are not providing the sufficient protection that a U.S. standard N95 mask would provide them. Some of those masks are only 30% effective. Nurses are rushing in the hospitals thinking they're protected — and they're not."
