The Mask MobileSan Mateo County's San Mateo County, is a van that will be distributing masks and will be on the streets starting this Thursday from Daly City.
County Supervisor David Canepa opened the program Mask Mobile at 12:30 p.m. at the Cafe Top of the Hill on Mission Street.
"It's a fun, exciting and educational way to promote the use of face masks in public spaces," Canepa said.
In addition, he said: "We will be offering masks and providing material about the Covid-19 in areas where they are most needed. This is an initial effort to educate the public that fines are now being levied in this county for violating state health orders. Hopefully, we won't have to issue any fines, but we're ready to do so as well. It's no mystery, the use of masks saves lives.
The initiative is the work of the county's Office of Community Affairs, which will be visiting several cities on the Peninsula to distribute multi-language materials, masks and cleaning supplies.
