Coronavirus solidarity

april 10, 2020

The Collège de France has donated personal protective equipment to the EHPAD Résidence Les Gobelins to contribute to the safety of its staff.

Teams from the Centre Interdisciplinaire en Biologie, headed by Marie-Hélène Verlhac, responded to an appeal from Dr. François-Xavier Callies, a physician at the Collège de France's Health Unit, who relayed the appeal from this EHPAD. Gowns, hundreds of lab coats and thousands of protective gloves identified as surplus to requirements were handed over to Guérande Lecuyer, deputy director of EHPAD Résidence Les Gobelins.
