I was told not to buy masks because healthcare providers needed them... We were getting clearly contradictory messaging (don't buy masks because it won't help you and also doctors need them) but for me the main takeaway was to leave the masks for those who really needed them.

That may be the real reason, but telling people that it won't help them as the reason certainly did not help. Now the medical personal need a lot more masks than they would have if people had been more cautious and covered their face.
