you dey mind them.

The real thing is the filter inside the mask, which is not even available everywhere.

I think you mean the N95 type that has an expiring particulate filter.

I mean the normal surgical mask with the microfiber lining

1. N95

2. Surgical Mask

Local production of PPE ongoing in GHANA for frontline health workers leading the fight against #COVID 19
Selected Local garment industries in GHANA are using fabrics produced locally from Akosombo Textiles, Volta Star Textiles and GTP.
In picture, minister of Trade and Industry visiting one of the selected garment Industry.

Meanwhile somewhere in the same West Africa they are still waiting for supplies from "beyond the Seven Seas".

It's high time we woke up from this self deceit called " Giant of Africa"........

And, this is the only sensible reply of all the 31 comments on the first page of this comment section.
So sad to know that many Nigerians are dumb but quick to make comments about everything.
While he is correct, I don't think his statement is in anyway helpful.

if you think one ply of your fabric is too flimsy, double it.

It is important to note that covering your face with a piece of cloth won't protect you. But, it could help you from spreading the virus if you're like some people who lack symptoms and don't know they have it.

It's not about being flimsy. The fabric should be porous enough to let air pass through and tight enough restrain particles from passing through. Not all materials meet this criteria especially dyed ones like Ankara.

Nigerianization:
This is commendable......

Aba tailors took the lead weeks ago...
Ankara is not a local fabric. It was just adopted by Africans. Most of the ones wee have are not even made here. The guy goofed thinking Ankara are local fabrics.

We have heard you.

I just recently read that some people are using pants as face mask in a particular africa country.

They are promoting Ankara. And think that will save them from using their money to buy face mask for Nigerians.

Wayo wayo Government.

charity begin at home
Re: We Want Tailors To Start Using Ankara To Make Face Masks - Boss Mustapha by delvzy(m): 4:29am On Apr 17, 2020
I would say get the best quality materials that they can use but in every sense the real surgical masks is meant for those who are already infected and hospitalized.
We still need to work more on the rate of testing daily.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA.
