FILE 0089 — THE ITEMS — MASK
MATERIAL
polypropylene—a type of fabric made from a “thermoplastic” polymer (meaning that it's easy to work with and shape at high temperatures).
USES
To protect from diseases, but most commonly recognised as a necessity in the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, where people would argue over letting people into grocery stores or not if they didn’t wear their masks. Now it’s 2023 and it is again socially acceptable to cough on the tube and not be stared at like a piece of mould.
