Many young children have become eager salesmen for the in-demand, fabric alternatives and now can be seen selling the masks in most parts of the city. With the preferred surgical and N-95 verities quickly selling out, most people resorted to using the commonly available varieties of face masks made out of cloth. Muhammad Asif, a tailor who has shifted to making the masks during the lockdown, told The Express Tribune that they make a few different varieties of the masks. “We do study in school, but since they are closed [due to the lockdown], we have started selling masks to support our families,” said Zaib, one of the four young boys selling masks whom The Express Tribune spoke to. After connecting with a dealer, Bacha started manning a street corner along with his two sons and started selling the masks.
