Medan city has set an emergency status for the corona Covid-19 virus since Mid-March and Medan Johor district sice early April has been designated as one of the sub-districts with the status of the Red Zone.

Fabric masks can be produced by sewing houses by using the patchwork they have. Becauses the materials in making masks do not require a lot of material, patchwork can be used and people who have sewing houses are also helped in the corona pandemic.
