Entrepreneurs Propose To Produce Masks

The coronavirus is a fierce adversary, yet there are surprisingly easy ways to defeat it. Two of the most important items one needs to provide oneself with some fundamental protection against the virus are some ordinary soap and water and the humble mask. Unfortunately, there is a critical shortage of the basic mask right now, with even medical experts suffering from it.

To stop the spread of the virus, the government has mandated that everyone going outdoors during the lockdown wear a regular cotton mask (not a N95 mask, which should only be worn by medical personnel). Unfortunately, there aren't nearly enough masks available on the market. Fortunately, a number of concerned people from many walks of life have decided to create masks for the general public as well as for distribution to healthcare and sanitation employees. Some of them were available for conversation.
