Masks For All

Early on in the #Covid19 pandemic I was impressed by the excellent Czech Republic PSA video recommending #Masks4All.

It inspired me to start sewing masks. Since I’ve been employed in an essential service, namely a grocery store, a potential epicentre, I’ve been working at designing and creating the most comfortable reusable non-medical masks I can devise, for myself, family and friends. I’m hoping to help inspire near universal mask use, as well donate to people in need.

Hanging out with upwards of 30,000 strangers assembled on a very hot day during the COVID19 pandemic, pretty nearly everyone wore masks. Waterloo Region public health later announced only a single case of COVID19 was linked to anyone at this event.
