Volunteers sew masks for fight against novel coronavirus outbreak

More than 30 volunteers organized by the village Party committee  are participating in a group effort to manufacture gauze masks, ethanol and sterilizing powder at a factory in Southwest China's Yunnan province to help arm the fight against the novel coronavirus.

Some villagers also have donated their sewing machines for the production work at Yunnan Xiangshan Medical Material Co in Mingyihe village, Anning city.
