Citizens Will Be Able to Buy Masks for 60-70 Drams from Vending Machines Soon, Says Prime Minister

There has been a significant drop in the prices of masks in the market, and soon citizens will be able to purchase a single mask for 60-70 drams from vending machines, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced at today's government meeting.

"Masks protect not only and not so much the wearer but the person opposite them. We must all treat each other as potential carriers of the virus; we must consider ourselves as potential carriers. Therefore, the context of not wearing a mask is not so much about fearing infection, but rather about being ready to infect someone else. In this context, not wearing a mask is a manifestation of a certain irresponsibility towards others rather than oneself," said the Prime Minister.
