Freeport outdoor retailer LL Bean says it is working with Maine Health to create “sneeze masks” for health care workers. The company is working with existing materials, such as dog bed liners, and sent prototypes to MaineHealth earlier this week. “Now we're gearing up for production. So we'll start more full fledged on Monday with our stitchers working to create those masks,” Bean spokesperson Marie McCarthy said.
