COVID-19 Medical Supply Fundraiser
As COVID-19 spreads worldwide panic and hysteria, hospital workers are on the frontlines working tirelessly to heal those infected and stop the spread of this deadly virus. Social distancing, self-quarantine, and proper hygiene are just a few ways we can help lessen the spread and ease their burdens.
This unprecedented pandemic has exhausted medical supplies and protective equipment causing our essential healthcare professionals to reuse medical masks, gloves, and other protective gear. It has been reported that hospital staff is reusing these protective essentials for up to 7 days. This not only puts them at a higher risk of contracting the virus and spreading it to others but also to the uninfected patients and their own loved ones at home.
The CDC, Surgeon General, healthcare professionals, and state representatives have highlighted the danger of medical supply shortages. This has prompted citizens to donate and contribute to giving these healthcare workers the supplies they need to properly, effectively, and safely do their jobs.
Embrace Relief is asking that we all come together to help each other by sending needed supplies to frontline hospital staff such as masks, hand sanitizer, and anti-bacterial soap. These essential supplies will save the lives of thousands and keep people safe.
