In light of the life-threatening, national PPE shortage, my team and I built a Plexiglas Droplet Barrier for COVID-19 testing. No health care worker should test patients without protection. We hope that this barrier will allow our staff to test patients safely in our outpatient clinics while preserving our scarce PPE (masks, face shields, and gowns). This droplet barrier is hand-crafted and inspired by necessity. The total build time was less than one hour. Disclaimer: I hope this video sparks innovative thinking
