Can Your Facility Manufacture Critical Supplies?
Heath care professionals and facilities all across the United States are looking for manufacturers who can provide them with critical supplies within the next 2 weeks, including: cotton swabs, tubes, gloves, protective suits, masks, PAPRs, rapid PCR test kits, ventilators, vital sign monitors and viral transport media.
In addition to this, they are looking for companies who can also fill in for those manufacturers whose supply chain was disrupted and can no longer make these critical medical devices.
Please read through the list of COVID-19 supplies needed along with specs for these products.
If you can help in this effort, we ask that you fill out the COVID-19 Critical Supplies Survey.
