Maryland’s Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD) and local fire engines helped celebrate the 90th birthday of a man who has sewn hundreds of masks for health care workers with a drive-by parade in Chevy Chase on Saturday, July 25. Dan Willkens made headlines locally in April for his work sewing masks for area hospital workers during a shortage of personal protective equipment caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The MCPD said that as of July, Willkens had sewn “approximately 300” masks for Suburban Hospital. Credit: Montgomery County Police Department via Storyful
