From China with love: Bologna receives 20.000 more masks

Last April 22nd, the Municipality of Bologna received an important shipment from China: 10 boxes including 20.000 disposal face masks to be used for the covid19 emergency.

The masks were donated to Bologna by the city of Zhuhai, the important urban centre of the Guangdong province which has been cooperating with the Municipality for a best practice exchange in several fields: from urban planning to environment, from trade to culture, from innovation to education.

These important PPE’s (Personal Protection Equipment) will be distributed free, like the other quantities provided by the Municipality of Bologna, to different groups of workers that operate in direct contact with the public.

A heartfelt thank goes to the city government of Zhuhai - in particular, to the Zhuhai Foreign Affairs Office – for their generous gift and to the Italian Embassy in Bejing, for the precious contribution to the shipment.

A very special thank to those who packed up the boxes, putting up labels with a much appreciated written encouragement “Forza Bologna!”.
