As the coronavirus spreads across the Vologda Region, the authorities have appealed to Vologda’s companies to begin production of protective face masks. Face masks are in widespread use both among the general population and medical staff. It's the higher-quality masks which are most effective, and most needed.
The Vologda Textile Factory that manufactures strong, durable and high-quality fabrics for sewing tablecloths, towels, upholstery switched to production of disposable surgical masks. Vologda’s production has currently been cut to around 20 thousand.
"Pharmacy", a state-owned network of pharmacies purchased a batch of masks for drugstores located throughout the region, including those in remote villages.
