INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE

In the early days of the pandemic, MAP helped to limit the spread of the virus by airlifting 3,000,000 masks, 300,000 pairs of gloves and more than 10,000 protective suits to our partners serving communities impacted by the coronavirus in China and several other countries.

MAP medicines, masks, gloves, soap and more are currently being used internationally in places like El Salvador, Nigeria, Italy, Philippines, Ethiopia, Haiti and Guatemala to combat the virus – and more shipments are planned.
