Local Klamath Falls community turns to social media for connections and helping others.
Cloth Masks:
Today the CDC has recommended that everyone wear non medical masks while in public to help slow the spread of Coronavirus. That recommendation says that cloth masks may help slow the spread of the virus because many people could be infected and not know it.
Tonie Kellom of Klamath Falls has recently created the Facebook Group “Klamath Corona Mask Makers” for people interested in making cloth masks to connect and contact each other. Tonie told Klamath Alerts today that she just wanted to help with the masks and created the group that has about 70 members so far as of posting time. Tonie said that several craft stores locally have contributed materials to the cause.
