As with many countries, France is experiencing a shortage of hand sanitizer.

To
help combat this, the luxury goods maker Louis Vuitton (LVMH) will start making
sanitizer to help fight the COVID-19 virus. The company will repurpose its
perfume production lines to start making anti-viral products. A spokesperson said
the company wants to help tackle the shortage of sanitizer across France. He
announced: "LVMH will use the production lines of its perfume and cosmetic
brands to produce large quantities of alcoholic gels. These gels will be delivered
free of charge to health authorities." He added: "LVMH will continue to honor this
commitment for as long as necessary, in connection with the French health
authorities."

LVMH is a luxury goods conglomerate that owns well-known brands such as

champagne maker Moet & Chandon, watchmaker Tag Heuer and jeweller Bulgari.
Its factories manufacture perfume and makeup for brands like Christian Dior and
Givenchy. In a warlike effort, they will change production to help France's health
system. More commercial companies could start helping out in the fight against
the coronavirus. The UK government has asked the car and jet-engine maker Rolls
Royce to start making ventilators. These are urgently required to help people
hospitalised with the virus breathe. The UK's health service has a huge shortage of
ventilators and is readying itself for more people to contract the virus.
