Masks distributed for polling station usage
In the recent elections held in Almaty, disposable masks were provided to various groups to ensure safety and hygiene. Here's a look at how these masks were sourced and distributed.
### Sourcing Disposable Masks
The procurement process for the disposable masks likely involved the issuance of tenders by the relevant authorities, specifying the quantity, quality standards, and delivery deadlines. Companies specialising in manufacturing or distributing personal protective equipment (PPE) were likely contracted to supply the masks.
### Distribution of Masks
Once the masks were procured, logistical arrangements were made with transportation companies to move them to storage facilities near polling stations. Masks were delivered to specific distribution points, such as polling stations, voting centres, or local government offices.
Volunteers or election officials ensured that masks were available for voters and polling staff before or during the voting process. In addition, disposable masks were provided to medical workers on duty at polling stations, authorised representatives of candidates, members of territorial election commissions, and observers at the polling stations.
Unused masks were handed over to medical institutions in Almaty, and another 1 million disposable masks were sent to schools. Moreover, the city's public health department allocated 1 million masks to schools for added protection.
