Li Ka Shing Foundation ordered N95 filter masks for medical staff in Hong Kong.
Since the Hong Kong government has been incapable of proscuring masks for the population, the problem of mask shortage persisted in Hong Kong.
From political groups, NGO, restaurants to individuals, those who managed to source masks distributed masks, sometimes, for free and sometimes, at a cost.
While the borders with China remain open, the demand for masks would continue in Hong Kong.
