Clothing the Pandemic

A Virtual Exhibition of COVID-19 Face Masks from Around the World

Israel Official Mask

The official mask was designed and sewn, at the request of the director general of the Ministry of Health, for the purpose of distributing hundreds of thousands of units to corona-infected areas. This mask was created at the request of the Reuven Rivlin, President of Israel, according to his measurements. The mask production project was also a social project, employing hundreds of independent seamstresses from around the country to create large quantities of masks in a short time period.
