Xiaomi donated a mask to Italy in the middle of the COVID-19 outbreak

As a company from China, Xiaomi suffered from the COVID-19 epidemic. Although in a very difficult time, Xiaomi has made a very nice gesture in Italy.

Xiaomi has donated thousands of medical masks to the Italian Civil Protection Bureau in the hope of "helping Italy in times of lack of health protection tools, as well as preventing the spread of the virus". Comes with that, Xiaomi also reminded that: "We are the same waves of the same ocean, the leaves of the same tree, the flowers of the same garden". This is a quote from the Roman philosopher Seneca.

According to Xiaomi, the type of mask it donated to Italy is a mask that meets FFP3 standards of Europe, which is also the type of mask with the highest level of protection.

As of March 9, Italy has recorded more than 9,172 COVID-19 infections and 463 deaths. Italy now has the second highest number of infections and deaths in the world, second only to China. Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has extended a blockade nationwide, banning all crowded activities and requiring people to stay home until April 3.
