    • Trivia
      To avoid spreading COVID-19 among a large host of interviewees, many safety measures were taken. These included sending sterilized camera equipment to interview subjects so that they could film themselves, interviewing via video conference, and setting up large plastic barriers between cameras and participants.
    • Quotes

      Michael Bowen: I'm a salesman telling a story nobody believes, the story that the U.S. mask supply is gonna collapse, and people are gonna die, and it doesn't cost much to fix. That's the story.

      Michael Bowen: I'm getting five-hundred to one-thousand emails a day. I'm getting email from people, not businesses. I'm getting emails from moms. I'm getting emails from old people, 'Please send me masks,'

      [chokes up]

      Michael Bowen: and I can't.

      [chokes up again, lip quivers]

      Michael Bowen: I can't help all these people.

    Totally Under Control 2020 Review
    What an extremely aggravating and educational doc. Sure, so much of this we already knew, but there's a lot more scummy stuff going on in our (American) federal government than we realize. So much of this could've been stopped or at least minimized if we had the right leadership, or at least someone who listened to science, doctors, and facts instead of pushing an agenda and making something like a face mask political. During the whole pandemic I think it'd be safe to say that i've stayed pretty educated with all the things happening, but I was still able to learn a lot. This is definitely something everyone should watch, especially if you're an American.
