It’s very important to understand that the face mask “IS FOR AND ONLY PROTECTS” the infected/sick person from releasing the COVID-19 droplets within a meter of their location, PLS NOTE: FACE MASK CANNOT PROTECT ANYONE AGAINST THIS VIRUS AND SANITIZERS DOES NOT STOP IT SPREAD!!!

May at this point ? Nonsense

Ogogoro or Hand wash is still the best method

NIGERIACPC fccpcnigeria please o, go after them gently. What if you are too hard and the decide to horde? There is no law forcing them to sell at all. I think it’s more an issue of dialogue. Also if the Federal Government were alive to its responsibilities, it would stock

It’s only when measures like this are taken that people behave.

Pls do oo

Pls start with Medmark pharmacy
