A group of prominent Silicon Valley tech leaders have formed a non-profit company and on Friday shipped out their first packages of personal protective equipment (PPE) to front-line medical personnel battling the coronavirus pandemic.
“All of us knew friends or relatives who were doctors or nurses who were working in hospitals without a proper mask or PPE,” said Meagan Pi, a vice-president at Google. “We quickly realized that this was a situation that the government may not be able to fill the needs quickly enough. Private citizens will have to do something.”
