Volunteers sew masks for fight against novel coronavirus outbreak

The youngest volunteer, 22-year-old Bi Qiling, joined the team. She's available because the new semester at her university in Beijing was delayed because of the novel coronavirus outbreak.

"With the volunteers, our production capacity is higher. We have 65 people and work on two shifts," said Zhang Kaijin, head of the factory.

The factory is capable of producing two tons of ethanol and 200 kilometers of sterilizing powder every day.

It sends its production information to the city government on a daily basis, and the products are all allocated by the government.
