I recently read somewhere that Israel is going to make the costliest face mask in the world. This face mask will have gold and diamonds stuck on it. It will be created by a leading luxury brand of Israel. The gold used will be 18 carat gold and there will be around 3,600 diamonds. The Mask will have the A-99 filter.
There is also a news from America that a Chinese businessman has ordered a mask worth ₹11.23 crore. Sometime back I saw that an Indian man from Pune had got himself a mask of gold costing ₹2.89 lakh.
It seems like masks have become something which can be flaunted more than being necessity. In this time of COVID-19. It is necessary that people should keep in mind the fact that masks are a shield against a deadly virus. It should not matter much whether it is costly or cheap. What matters more is that we are able to protect ourselves. The Mask which we you should we breathable enough so that even if we have to wear it for long hours it does not cause much discomfort. We have to keep in mind that saving ourselves is much more important than showing to the world how fashionable or how costly are masks are.
