When an epidemic occurred in Hubei Province at the end of December last year, she paid more attention to buying more reserves. In addition, she belongs to the middle class, and she once thought "buy high-priced masks when it's a big deal." On a certain day in early January, she passed Causeway Bay and saw that more than a thousand people were playing snake cakes in a shop selling masks. The crowd did not disperse for a few hours. The scene shocked her. On the same day, she returned home and discussed with her husband. A lot of people are really afforded (affordable) and do n’t get expensive masks.
