THREAD: I mostly talk about movies on here, but here goes. We are currently pivoting our factory to solely make surgical masks and other medical garments in short supply. We can make 2 million masks a day, and are looking to help in any way possible during this time. #COVID19
Bureaucracy and red tape are making this hard, but if anyone knows of any hospitals or facilities that are in need of the following, please DM me:
Surgical masks
Face masks
Surgical gowns
Cover-alls
Gloves
Surgical masks
Face masks
Surgical gowns
Cover-alls
Gloves
All phones for the coronavirus hotline are jammed up, as well as all numbers from @NYGovCuomo’s press conferences. If anyone has any direct contacts on how to best supply our facilities, please let me know. It does not have to be within New York!
Please share and retweet this, we have the ability to significantly ameliorate the medical supply shortage if we can contact the right people! #CoronavirusUpdates #Covid_19
Floored by the response tonight. I know I said to DM me, but I never expected such an outpouring of requests. Trying my best to read all messages, but at this point it’s hard to keep up. I have incredible leads, and will be following up on the best way to get these supplies out.
Thank you everyone who shared the word. I’ll also be updating this thread periodically to keep everyone posted. Please know that silence on here means that I am busy coordinating this effort. Again, thank you so much!
Shipping millions of supplies from overseas is difficult and complex to do, but thanks to you all, we've gotten the contacts needed to make it happen. We are now prioritizing state agencies, hospital networks, then individual hospitals. We'll be working with @NYGovCuomo's office.
