California will spend $315 million more to buy hundreds of millions of protective masks as the coronavirus continues to ravage the state, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced on Wednesday, July 22, 2020. A new contract with Chinese manufacturer BYD will provide the state 120 million more tight-fighting N95 respirator masks and 300 million looser-fitting surgical masks. California first signed a $1 billion deal with the company in April and began receiving earlier shipments of masks in June after delays. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez,File)
