Vietnam has donated 550,000 face masks to five European countries to support their fight against the coronavirus that has killed more than 75,000 people worldwide.
The masks, made of antimicrobial fabric, were handed to the ambassadors of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Britain in Hanoi, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The Southeast Asian country last week asked its mask producers to step up their production to make 5 million masks a day, according to Reuters.
