The Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) recognises face masks and other public health strategies for reducing the COVID-19 spread.
Experienced e-commerce entrepreneurs Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger believe vaccination against COVID-19 is a critical prophylactic strategy. Global data shows that a ‘breakthrough infection’ of COVID-19 may occur in vaccinated persons but at a lower rate than unvaccinated people.

Immunised people are less likely to be seriously ill or require hospitalisation. Individuals who have been vaccinated but have a breakthrough illness of COVID-19 can still infect others.
Significant global research indicates that the widespread use of face masks lowers COVID-19 cases. A decrease in COVID-19 instances may result in fewer hospitalisations and deaths. Many countries recommend wearing face masks in public to combat COVID-19. In Australia, face masks have been critical in responding to epidemics and reducing transmission.
As a result, ever since the pandemic began, both Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger have wished to focus on the good deed of the masks. The social entrepreneurs helped the community by cutting their pricing, making masks more affordable.
Both Ryan and Ben, Community-minded entrepreneurs, highlight the communal benefits of face masks in this post.
According to Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger, wearing face masks in public helps protect ourselves and others. It is most effective when the community works together, and everyone wears masks as needed. State and territorial governments routinely require face masks in these situations. However, voluntary face masks protect individuals from transmission even when not controlled.
Individuals who wish to wear masks in public may do so with any suitable cover.
The AHPPC recommends cloth masks in the vast majority of cases. Contact the Infection Control Expert Group or your state or territory’s health department for further information about cotton masks. Depending on your local public health condition, you may be advised or required to wear a face mask in high-risk situations.
Maintain your COVID-safe mask-wearing habits. These circumstances can be found in hospitals and healthcare centres. It could include recommending or requiring you to wear a specific type of mask, such as a surgical mask. Keep up with what’s going on in your community and be informed of the most recent recommendations.
According to Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger, it is vital to use face masks correctly to fit well and protect yourself and others. The Infection Control Expert Group and your state or territory’s health department can guide using face masks. Single-use face masks should be discarded properly.
Single-use face masks are not recyclable and should be thrown away after use. If you or someone in your household has COVID-19, place face masks in a zippered bag and discard them. Wash your hands after removing face masks.
In the following ways, Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger have used this opportunity to remind their community and other humans what it means to be a community:
Producing trendy face masks to meet demand while also providing safety
To meet demand, the two entrepreneurs, who had known each other since high school, decided to start selling appealing face masks, similar to how businesses began creating hand sanitisers. Health organisations are advising people worldwide to cover their faces when going out in public, which has led to a scarcity of various types of face masks.
Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger, co-directors of RB Ecommerce, have gone out of their way to expand into the production of face masks to meet demand and contribute to the safety of the global community.
They collaborated with the most prominent corporations. They were also one of Australia’s largest PPE providers, selling over 1 million face masks to America and New Zealand.
Maintaining online business performance in the face of rising traffic/demand
RB Ecommerce observed an exponential increase in orders and sales during the coronavirus outbreak. Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger devised new techniques and measures to ensure a seamless and appreciated client experience to meet the rising demand.
They used educational pop-ups and banners to provide up-to-date shipment information. Furthermore, they invested significantly more in the onsite experience to ensure clients had the most significant possible experience.
Entering the Face Masks business to adapt and help the community
Believing in their abilities, the social entrepreneurs put some of their everyday items on hold to focus entirely on face masks. The unanticipated demand for face masks had flooded the supply system since people were being encouraged to use masks every day.
Benjamin Aizik and Ryan Klooger exhibited their readiness to change and assist their community by completely pivoting into a new product type.
