I have been to many drugstores like Mercury, Watson, TGP, and my neighborhood botikas. I even visited many of their branches from different cities. I have asked them if they have any face mask available for sale and I got the same answer from them all which was “Out of Stock!”

I cannot stay at home and isolate myself and my family. I need to go out to the wet market and supermarket to buy fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, and some groceries. I also need to go to the bank or a government office to do some official transactions. I sometimes have to go to the mall, a restaurant, or fastfood chain to buy food or do some shopping. We can do some of these by online food or grocery deliveries but not all of them are available thru the internet.

If I am unable to buy a simple face mask because it is out of stock, what should I do to protect my family? Should I just order the face mask via an online shopping app?

Should I just buy a small hand sanitizer, alcohol sprayer, wipes, etc. so as to kill the virus from my hands? Will washing my hands help kill the virus? So what preventive measures have you practiced?

CTTO for the picture.
