This week's episode of Coronavirus and Class War focuses on the efforts of everyday people in making Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)for front line workers. PPE is running dangerously low in hospitals across the United States due to years of austerity politics and a profit driven healthcare system.
Lupita speaks with Isabelle Barter, a member of Medics and Makers, about her organization's efforts to fill the supply gap of PPE with their 3D Printers and why major corporations aren't putting their factories to mass produce PPE.
