Várpalota

The Local Government got volunteers and dressmakers to fabricate altogether 21.000 face masks, 350 face shields and 312 protective overalls. Healthcare workers and social workers received these items of protective equipment first.

Until 30th of March 2020 all the residents of Várpalota were supplied with face masks which were put into the letterboxes of the houses and flats.

Within the framework of “stay home” campaign elderly residents were informed through loudspeakers about the importance of staying at home, different types of support available for them, tasks related to the allocation of masks, rules of wearing the masks and social distancing. The announcements through loudspeakers installed on cars took place with three cars several times a day from 21st of March until the end of April. Some volunteers fulfilled 60-100 working hours with their cars in the early evening on workdays, at weekends and on holidays while informing the residents.
