The Neoliberal Project's own @mattparlmer is featured in The Economist as part of the frantic private sector efforts to increase PPE production.
Check out what Matt and others are doing at the @OpenPPEProject

There's a lot of (mis)information out there about masks. We know mask quality matters for medical personnel seeking PPE, and it's also an important PSA more broadly as citizens seek to understand the effects + realities of the pandemic. #GetUsPPE#MaskUp
Heartwarming story of the triumph of the human spirit and the power of connection during #COVID19. This is our W H Y, to protect those who are saving lives. #ThanksHealthHeroes
@peterpham We're able to deploy resources effectively and immediately to an open-source N95-equivalent mask production line via @OpenPPEProject, and we're also taking an aggressive regulatory approach to make sure they can be used, drop me a line in DMs if you'd like to chat.
MYTH: HC workers risk their lives every day just by nature of the job/taking care of sick people
FACT: We didn't go into medicine to risk our lives. We aren’t soldiers who enlist and expect to die because we don’t have the equipment needed to protect ourselves. #GetUsPPE
Instead of an entire disposable mask (blown polypropylene), Open PPE Project (with Helpful Engineering) is developing an open-source design for reusable plastic mask with a small PP filter component that can be changed in lieu of tossing the entire mask. https://t.co/kM1EBhke5D
"Beginning with their own factory churning out N95-like masks in the midwest, the group hopes its #opensource model can be adopted by others, when the need strikes." by @CoinDesk

Open source has made its way to the medical industry with the Open PPE Project, helping to make face masks for the coronavirus outbreak. Read more about it here: https://t.co/RdeRM1TCWO
Sobering AM read via @WSJ. Export restrictions shouldn't be preventing the U.S. from the PPE it needs. Domestic solutions matter. #GetUsPPE https://t.co/05k2s4TYX0
IN DEPTH: Engineers in the Midwest are creating an open source method for manufacturing face masks. They hope to decentralize production to the local level.

"That’s where @OpenPPEProject comes in..forging a way to spin up mask-making facilities across the country. The idea is to give mfg. capability to individual hospitals, towns & states...alleviating the constraints of centralized production."

For those saying there’s enough PPE everywhere .. sharing a message from a friend at a medium sized hospital 20 mins outside of a hotspot city.
This is a travesty.
