MORAN OUTREACH TEAM AND VOLUNTEERS CREATING COVID-19 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR HAITI AND BEYOND
When Sophia Fang, MD, MS, learned a long-time partner of the John A. Moran Eye Center’s Global Outreach Division in Haiti had to shut its doors because of a lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) to battle a COVID-19 outbreak, she took action.
Fang, who is Moran’s global outreach fellow, has a background in biomedical engineering. She also has a history of creating behind-the-scene tools and systems needed to make sustainable, effective eye care in outreach settings a reality.
