So yeah, Korn is now flogging off surgery masks to all of their fans, and with the Coronavirus panic being on fire like it is, of course, they sold out in record time…

In light of the Coronavirus epidemic which is sweeping the globe, everyone and their grandmothers are purchasing surgical masks in an attempt to prevent the disease from infecting their systems. Korn has jumped on this trend and are now selling their own masks, but they have already sold out.

The masks were on Korn’s online webstore for $10. But don’t panic if you weren’t able to grab one — you can subscribe and be notified when they’re back in stock!

So for $10 you can wear Korn’s logo on your face and protect yourself from… absolutely nothing. They’re not actual, medically-approved masks people. They’re merchandise. If you want a mask for your face that badly, you can get a 20-pack here for less than $20.

In recent news, the outbreak of Coronavirus has affected one of the spring’s major music events in America, with the City of Austin now revealing that the 2020 edition of the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival will be cancelled.

Many had hoped that the event would continue on as planned, but as Facebook, Twitter, Amazon and Apple pulled out of the festival earlier in the week and Ozzy Osbourne, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross backed out of major events over the last day, the decision to call off South by Southwest was made.
