The World Health Organization (WHO) has urged manufacturers to urgently increase the production of personal protective equipment (PPE) worldwide as more countries are getting affected by Covid-19.
The scarcity of PPE such as gloves, medical masks, respirators, goggles, and face shields are leaving the frontline clinicians ill-equipped to treat Covid-19 coronavirus patients.
According to the current estimations by WHO, PPE supplies across the world need to be increased by 40%.
