A team of researchers from Chennai's Anna University has given a ray of hope to the ever growing demand for protective mask amid coronavirus spread in the country. The team has come out with reusable masks with better filtration efficiency and at affordable prices. Till now common people are wearing non biodegradable single use masks that may pose a risk of infection. While the pharmacies are selling single use mask at high prices the reusable mask will be available at 25 or 30 and can be washed and reused up to 20 times. However, the reusable mask is thicker than the single-use mask available in the market.
