Personal protective equipment psychosis has infected everyone a little bit.
If, since the beginning of the Coronavirus epidemic, the masks had become unobtainable, after the Government’s provisions setting a calm price for the market, the situation does not seem to have improved.
In many regions, these provisions have made the use of these IPR mandatory in some contexts, such as in enclosed spaces and commercial activities; others have given more stringent indications, calling for the use of protective masks even in open spaces and when the safety distance is respected.
Respecting the indications given is absolutely necessary to prevent a new wave of infection and to carry out, with relative peace of mind, what is called “Phase 2”, in order to return as quickly as possible to our everyday life.
How to find the masks in our area
To grab the precious mask has therefore become an indispensable necessity, but to plumb the city in search of the precious heirloom risks becoming a long and complicated but fruitless action.
How, however, can we go out and work in peace without risking penalties and, above all, without having to worry about our own health and that of the people we are in contact with?
In our rescue now comes a website, very easy to use, able to show us with very few steps where the masks are available in our area.
It is sufficient, in fact, to navigate on the website TrovaMascherine (in fact) from desktop or mobile to find yourself in front of a scrolling map in which are highlighted the pharmacies that have the precious and useful protection device.
The site offers us in a simple and clear way the commercial activities that have available not only masks, but also disinfectant gels, disposable gloves and thermoscanners. Just click on the geolocation button, in the top right corner, to allow the system to identify the area from which we write and display the reference map.
The app and website provide a daily updated database of device availability for each pharmacy in Italy.
The project was created by a group of Italian professionals in collaboration with buildo.io and Farmacisti Associati Piemonte.
The search system, totally free, does not collect personal data. Therefore, in addition to our health, we can also be sure to protect our privacy.
