Last week, Clark Mulligan, president of the Laboratory Products Association (LPA), released a list of ways labroatory companies can help other during the COVID-19 pandemic, if resources are available.
How to Help – If you or your organization is interested in helping the effort to combat the spread of COVID-19, FEMA has established a website (www.fema.gov/coronavirus/how-to-help) with more information. Examples for the private sector include:
- To sell medical supplies or equipment to the federal government, please email specifics to [email protected].
- If you have medical supplies or equipment to donate, please provide us details on what you are offering.
- If you are a private company that wants to produce a product related to the COVID response – email [email protected].
- If you are a hospital and other companies in need of medical supplies, contact your state Department of Public Health and/or Emergency Management.
- For non-medical supplies, services or equipment, if you are interested in doing business with FEMA, visit our Industry Liaison Program.
If you or your company is in a position to help others, please use the above appropriate links. There are additional COVID-19 resources on the LPA Government Affairs page: www.lpanet.org/gov
