An anonymous reader quotes Engadget:
Hospitals in numerous countries are struggling to provide

basic supplies to healthcare workers, and tech companies

are pitching in to address the shortfall. Tim Cook has

revealed that Apple is donating “millions” of masks to

healthcare professionals in Europe and the U.S.

Their article notes that Alibaba has also been donating

masks, test kits, protective suits and face shields, while Elon

Musk’s companies are exploring the production of

ventilators.

“It’s part of a positive trend and suggests that tech

companies may play a significant role in fighting the

pandemic whether or not they have directly relevant

expertise.”
