The masks from Hamm are already in use

Seven thousand masks, including one thousand of the FFP2 type, were given to Kalisz by German Hamm as part of cooperation between the cities.

The authorities of Kalisz decided to transfer the masks to the places where they are most needed. They went to the accident & emergency department of the Provincial Combined Hospital and to the Corona Special Hospital - Provincial Specialist Complex of Health Care for Lung Disease and Tuberculosis in Wolica, in which only patients infected with coronavirus are treated.

- Masks will definitely be useful in hospitals and will be well used by the staff who save the health and lives of residents every day - said President Krystian Kinastowski.

The head of Kalisz also sent Thomas Hunsteger-Petermann, mayor of Hamm, an official letter expressing gratitude for the donation of help.
