In the midst of severe haze that struck Riau Province, various parties took part in distributing masks to the public.

Riau Health Agency Head Mimi Yuliani Nazir invites the people of Riau to maximize the use of masks when the haze disaster conditions. And socialization needs to be used.

"Masks are currently selling well. But their use is lacking. In fact many do not wear masks. After we have shared but not used. Only in the bag. This needs to be socialized for its use," said Mimi, Friday, September 20, 2019.

He said, since the haze disaster began or rather in July 2019, the Riau Diskes had distributed 1.5 million masks to communities throughout Riau.

"This does not include distribution from the Health Service in regencies and cities in Riau," he said.
