Face Shields

Description: In response to the chronic shortage of face masks and face shields at healthcare facilities through the New York area, the task force has spearheaded an inexpensive, open source, production-ready PPE face shield. Prototypes have already been used by emergency medical staff at NYU Langone Brooklyn. Our Face Shield design is being produced by manufacturers in NYC— we have connected NYC EDC with manufacturers that will create 700,000+ Face Shields, and we’re working on more. . The designs are also being shared with other universities around the country.

Status: Ready for production
