Abstract

From June 2020 - June 2021, members of Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Disaster Medicine and the MIT Humanitarian Supply Chain Lab conducted a year-long research project to support public health planners in creating a state-level emergency stockpile of personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers. The research revealed opportunities for policymakers and emergency management professionals to improve PPE preparedness for the next pandemic.
