It has caused economic problems around the world. The main aim of this study is to investigate the effects of covid-19 on exports and imports of face masks and breathing apparatus in Turkey. In the research, general data for 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 were used as a priority, and after general evaluations, a comparison was made between the data of January, February and March of the products in 2018, 2019 and 2020. In conclusion, Covid-19 increased the export of face masks and respirators in Turkey and reduced imports of the said products.</p></abstract>
