Perhaps someone can help.

Where can I get a face mask for protection?

I have asked in pharmacies and quite a few people to no avail.

Grateful for any suggestions. Yes, I am practising making them - not very good.

Thank you.

Hi Nettie,

It appears that chemists now have them in stock, so try your local Farmacia. I paid 2.50€ each in Cabo Roig today. Someone paid 1.50€ in Punta Prima. They are disposable but they can be used more than once if you spray them after use. (This was confirmed at the Farmacia I went to).

€1.95 at my local pharmacy today, limited to 2 per customer. 

First time they have had them since the lockdown but with every customer buying I doubt their stock will last very long. 

Hope tomorrow morning wont be too late for you!

They asked me how many so, as I was expecting to spend €10, I asked for 4 (@2.50). I must admit, I was surprised that they were not in individual sachets. I know she was wearing gloves, but even so, not ideal!

Any idea if the farmacia's are still open. Haven't  a clue what time they normally close.

No Nettie, I don’t know their hours. They have probably reduced their hours at the moment. You should be ok in the morning though.

Oh good.

If I'm  stopped by the police for being out driving, that is a good reason isn't  it?!!
