Mask, Sanitizer Sales Started Once Again

Hyderabad, Dec 24 (Maxim News): Amid unease over reports of Covid-19 in some countries and following advisories being issued by the government and also medical and health bodies, the sales of facemasks and sanitizers have started to pick up again.

Store shelves are again getting stocked with face masks and hand sanitizers, face coverings are selling at a premium online and supermarkets and other retailers are getting prepared for a surge in demand. Protective equipment, which almost disappeared from the markets until recently, is back as mask mandatory rules reaped in workplaces and a few other public settings.

The store owners already feel like there is a bit of panic buying. People have been asking for face masks, hand sanitizers, and cleaning wipes for the last few days says a store owner. There was a drop in sales of these products after the third wave but now it has begun, all over. “We are working to keep ourselves packed with COVID essentials, ” says a medical store owner.

Some chemist shops have jacked up prices, selling masks that were available earlier for about Rs. 30 at Rs. 50 or more than that. The cost of N95 shields, too, increased twofold. (Maxim News)
