Guangzhou, China, March 17, 2020 --(PR.com)-- The demand for surgical masks will continue to drastically rise given the situation the entire world is in today. The increasing number of reported cases of the Coronavirus disease in many countries has caused people to be more mindful of their hygiene and protection against sicknesses as well. This is why, SoMedicalSupplies, a professional supplier of medical and surgical supplies, have increased their daily production of surgical masks to 3 million.

The Shortages of Face Masks
In the latest update, there are more than 130,000 Coronavirus cases in the world. After the outbreak of the Coronavirus disease, people are panic buying and hoarding supplies and among them are face masks. This has caused shortages in the supply, particularly in the US and China. Apart from the Coronavirus situation, there are also other reasons why people are going to need masks.
