A new type of coronavirus has spread rapidly in Wuhan, China recently. However, the use of masks by the naked eye is not able to distinguish whether the virus, if these masks are not properly handled, the virus will spread further!
With a single press, the "protector" can display the symbol of "X" . "X" expresses "danger" and prompts people to handle it carefully. At the same time, the surrounding of "X" is treated with disinfectant, which further reduces the possibility of virus transmission. Especially in Africa, the Middle East and other regions where the infectious diseases are frequent.
