ICTA-UAB is since last Monday 16 March 2020, an Institute with Restricted Access. Most of the laboratories are empty, the Scientific and Technical Services are closed, only the basic services are working and most of the people is working and staying at home. As we all know, Personal Protection Equipment is needed in the hospitals and health centers. Thus, we decided to donate all the useful material that we had.

All the Research Groups gave away all their stock of Personal Protection Equipment, mainly gloves (either latex or nitrile).

Finally, 26 boxes of gloves were collected, making a total of 26.000 gloves. The protective material was sent to the hospitals Vall d'Hebron, Sant Pau i Santa Creu, Parc Taulí, Germans Trias i Pujol and Hospital del Mar, to help the healthcare personnel fighting against COVID-19.
