Bad Kissingen (dpa / lby) - The Lower Franconian district town of Bad Kissingen had FFP2 masks distributed to all 14,000 households.
As the municipality reported on Monday, two masks were thrown in each apartment last weekend.
The city council provided the money for the 28,000 masks.
City officials then packed the masks in envelopes.
"If you order to be worn across the board when you go shopping, in my opinion you have to offer help across the board so that everyone has the chance to meet the requirements," said Mayor Dirk Vogel (SPD).
Although two masks per household are not a permanent supply, the fulfillment of the requirements is made easier for the citizens.
Since January 18th, FFP2 masks have to be worn in shops and in local transport in Bavaria, a simple mouth and nose cover is no longer sufficient.
Outside of the Free State, Bremen wants to send five FFP2 masks by post to all residents between the ages of 15 and 59 at the beginning of February.

Citizens over the age of 60 receive the special masks nationwide for a small additional payment in pharmacies.
The health insurance companies are currently sending out corresponding federal vouchers to those affected.
