AMORGOS, GREECE – Durable and fashion friendly, A-Masks are Greek-designed face masks using high-quality materials and are a reusable, washable and eco-friendly option. The A-Masks are made on the Cycladic island of Amorgos with stylish, patented organic fabrics in various styles and sizes and are designed to help protect against air pollution, smog, dust, and to offer a measure of protection to others from the wearer’s breathing droplets.

Irene Giannakopoulos, owner and CEO of Aegialis Hotel & Spa, shared the information with The National Herald through email, noting that “our resourceful team is keeping up with the times as we try to manage the effects of this situation.”

“Our talented team has carefully chosen the most stylish, organic patented fabrics and we have been producing various styles and sizes of the A-mask at our HQ here in Amorgos,” Giannakopoulos said, adding that “since they are reusable, they are also eco-friendly, which is a major advantage as we see so much sanitary equipment such as masks and gloves, being thrown away after just one use, a terrible waste for our environment and our planet.”

Sizes are available for kids and adults, with adjustable ear straps and a sturdy nose piece offering a tighter seal for better protection.

The A-Masks are available online and are shipped worldwide with a special family discount, buy four and get one free.

More information is available online: www.a-mask.com or via email: info@a-mask.com.

To prevent the spread of airborne illnesses, wash hands frequently, practice social distancing, keeping six feet away from others, and if you are sick, stay home and monitor your symptoms. A fever, cough, and shortness of breath are symptoms of the coronavirus, but people with underlying health conditions and especially trouble breathing should contact their doctor.

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), wear a face mask if you are sick and are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. If you are not able to wear a face mask (for example, because it causes trouble breathing), then you should do your best to cover your coughs and sneezes, and people who are caring for you should wear a face mask if they enter your room.

If you are NOT sick: You do not need to wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick (and they are not able to wear a face mask). Face masks may be in short supply and they should be saved for caregivers.

More information is available on cdc.gov.
