About the project
Background
The project Europe vs COVID-19 was born out of the observation of the medical crisis due to the diffusion of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in all European member states.
As a result, there is a significant lack of important medical equipment.
This situation is aggravated by the dependency on international trading partners.
The goals
To support public institutions, hospitals and other health facilities in a situation which sees normal supply chains and production interrupted while global demand grows simultaneously.
To contribute to stop the shortage of medical and hygiene equipment and other products needed by these structures.
To encourage political measures in Europe to avoid bidding fights and stockpiling of goods by one country urgently needed in another member state.
To provide a foundation to a European production and logistic chain of critical goods with sufficient supply.
How to realize the objectives
By providing public institutions, hospitals and other health facilities with a quick and organized overview of companies that can provide products either immediately or by adapting existing supplies to the currently needed specifications.
By the creation of a European database for companies with products suiting the pharmaceutical sector all over Europe.
