Hack The Pandemic

A collaborative group of makers in Bath and Bristol, producing and distributing vital PPE to NHS staff and front-line workers during the #Covid19 #Pandemic

Due to the reduced demand and increase in availability for #PPE, we will be going into 'hibernation' after one more factory day next month. Read our article here to find out more: https://t.co/UBYGWUscF2

The UK government failed in its duty of care to protect doctors and the wider healthcare workforce at the start of the pandemic, a doctors' union says.

Two years ago, I was running @HackPandemic with Ed & Paul, producing and supplying tens of thousands of units of PPE for free to front line workers.

This little guy, printed by Paul, watched over us on factory days.

#MayThe4thBeWithYou everyone!

@dr_aramsaeed It is our pleasure Aram. Thank you so much for releasing the designs, the feedback has been incredible!

My car (with the standard issue Bristol dent in the bumper) has been serving as a mobile PPE distribution point for @HackPandemic in the city centre. Such satisfying work, hope gran would be proud of the job her car is doing now! #PPEshortage #Covid19UK

With over 17,000 units of our emergency equipment delivered so far, we thought it would be a great time to show you where it all ends up...

As a self/crowd funded group, we are completely reliant on the good will of others to continue our work.

We've launched a 'Friends of HTP' page on the website to thank organisations who have shown their support. From all of us at HTP, thank you!

Our final speakers are @HackPandemic who have brought together communities of #3DPrinters to create components for thousands of #faceshields & other devices which are assembled in their popup factory. How has their story evolved with the crisis itself? https://t.co/rH7O6qor3Y
