Ky schools to get two million masks from DHHS

Schools in Kentucky will be receiving more than two million masks from the Department of Health and Human Services.

According to a press release from Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, 2,035,195 face masks will be sent to the Commonwealth to be used by students and teachers at public and private schools.

“Wearing a mask is one of the most important ways each of us can protect ourselves and our loved ones from the coronavirus,” said Senator McConnell.

“I’m grateful to President Trump and his team for directing over two million masks to Kentucky to help our young people learn safely, Until we get one or more vaccines, all of us must do our part to beat this virus.”
