Fashion designer Chelsea Klukas wanted to help out during the coronavirus epidemic. The creator of the startups Lumen Couture and Make Fashion therefore posted on the web, two days ago, a video tutorial intended to make her own protective face mask against Covid-19. Not that it meets regulatory standards for optimal protection of its wearer but rather that it reminds others to maintain a six-foot gap (almost two meters) for social distancing, with a LED display showing luminous warnings. Check out the video below.
