UPS (NYSE:UPS) today announced the donation of 10,000 N95 respirator masks to hospitals across the Commonwealth of Kentucky. UPS has procured a sufficient supply to meet internal needs and is sharing its available masks to help protect healthcare providers in Louisville and in hospitals statewide. Louisville is the home to UPS Worldport, the company’s global, all-points air hub.
“For more than 30 years, Louisville has been home to Worldport and UPS Airlines, and there are more than 32,000 dedicated UPSers across the Commonwealth. We are grateful for the opportunity to help the doctors, nurses and others who are on the front lines fighting the coronavirus pandemic in Kentucky,” UPS Airlines President Brendan Canavan said.
UPS procured the masks from a variety of sources and has the appropriate PPE necessary to protect its employees, while also being able to donate hospital-grade protective equipment to healthcare providers.
这10000个口罩星期一被送到位于法兰克福的肯塔基州应急管理局,分发给全州的医院。州长安迪·贝希尔说:我要感谢UPS为肯塔基州的医疗保健专业人员提供了急需的N95口罩。这次捐赠的基本个人防护设备将直接挽救肯塔基州人的生命,并有助于减缓冠状病毒的传播。被********为“关键基础设施业务”的UPS交付正在挽救生命和生计。该公司向全世界495000名UPSer表示衷心感谢,他们的工作在大流行期间至关重要,他们每天都在安全地交付。
