Rome: Chinese diocese sent medical masks to the Vatican for defense when the corona was spreading in Italy and Rome. The Xian diocese of Shanxi province has sent 24,000 medical masks to the Vatican, Fr. Chen Ruixue said.
We are now free of it. But Italy is in distress. They should be helped now. Our contributions may be small. But it is expected to be helpful for many. “It is also an opportunity to forge friendships between China and the Vatican and between China and Italy,” he added. During the outbreak of Covid-19 in China, the Vatican exported over six million masks to China.
