lin fei fei: response & hazmat gear needed in china

We got a note from FLOM­MIST Lin Fei Fei – who flew off to Chi­na to vis­it friends and fam­i­ly and to eat her fa­vorite foods #chick­en­feet be­fore her next show opens in Sacramento.

Here’s wat she writes:

“I land­ed in Chi­na be­fore the coro­n­avirus virus spread out – un­for­tu­nate­ly my tim­ing wasn’t great. Luck­i­ly, no one I know is sick. We’re stay­ing at home at least for the next 2 weeks to make sure we stay safe and healthy. So many pub­lic places are closed and Med­ical staff is run­ning out of supplies.

“This is what they need: Gloves, haz­mat suits:

“Gog­gles:

“And N95 res­pi­ra­tor masks:

“I want to say thanks to all the peo­ple who are send­ing their greet­ings and who’ve al­ready offered me these re­sources. I re­al­ly ap­pre­ci­ate it, we need your help! There are many peo­ple that need these sup­plies right now.

“To do­nate: If you can, pls just mail them to me. I’ll dis­trib­ute them to peo­ple who are in need while I’m in China. 

“DM me thru my In­sta­gram for the mail­ing ad­dress. Thank you!!!”

 

If there’s any FLOM­MISTS (or non-flom­mists) read­ing this with medical/industrial haz­mat con­nec­tions who could se­cure a small or large do­na­tion, please con­tact Lin di­rect­ly to work out lo­gis­tics. While in Chi­na, Lin can also be reached thru her per­son­al Face­book page/using Mes­sen­ger.

And here’s a few snaps of the shop­ping scene in Wafang­di­an, where Lin is staying:
