The coronavirus pandemic It has given for many extravagances, but that of an Indian citizen really verges on madness.
It happens that an inhabitant of the state of Maharashtra called Shankar Kurhade decided that the best way he had to chase away the covid-19 it was wearing a mask … gold.
Yes, as is. And the grace had a value close to four thousand dollars, almost three million 200 thousand pesos.
“The idea of making a gold mask came to my mind when I saw a man in a silver mask. Since I love gold and wear heavy gold chains and rings, I thought: why not wear a gold mask? Then I asked a local jeweler to make one for me, with the respective holes to breathe. ”said the flamboyant Indian, who bears a weight of almost 2.5 kilos on his face when wearing the expensive mask.
“As for its effectiveness, we know that masks are not enough, we have to keep our distance. Therefore, when I go out with the golden mask, I also observe the social distance… I became the center of attention when I went out with her, because people are curious ”, said Shankar Kurhade.
According to the data of the Universidad Johns Hopkins, India It is the fourth country in the world with the most infected with coronavirus, with 648,315 cases, after United States, Russia and Brazil. And as for the dead, it is in eighth place, with 18,655 deaths.
