PRAGUE – The National Museum in Prague has put on display the most visible symbol of the Czech Republic's response to the coronavirus - face masks.
The Czech government made wearing masks in public mandatory in mid-March. Amid an initial shortage, many people started making their own masks.
Some of the masks featured in the museum exhibition were made by leading fashion designers, while others are the handiwork of creative home crafters.
One mask was made from a cloth on which a 15-year-old boy with autism painted a map of Prague’s public transportation network.
