2020 has proven to be a year full of changes, as we are adjusting to life during pandemic, here in UBGA we have mainly focused on finding ways to help relief the needs of our community facing COVID-19.
During June and July, we continued our “Support Hospital Staff” campaign, which had the purpose of collecting medical and protection equipment and sanitary material. With these donations our staff put together kits of personal protective equipment, and delivered them to the health institutions that function as COVID-19 intervention centers in Puebla, to help protect every person exposed to contagion.
Two of our Mobile Medical Units continue to be lent to hospitals in Puebla that have been assigned as COVID-19 intervention centers, with this we aim to enable the medical staff to extend their capacity of performing triage safely thus increasing their ability to provide medical care for patients infected with covid-19. The two hospitals benefiting from this action are the Cholula General Hospital and the Hospital of Traumatology and Orthopedics of Puebla, both located in the outskirts of the city and belong to the Ministry of Health.
We aim to continue helping the population in need in any matter we can, and to go back to the communities with health services as soon as it is safe again, that is our passion and our motor. As the whole world is changed by this pandemic, we thank you more than ever for your generosity in this time of need.
