Top E-commerce player eBay has partnered with the UK’s National Health Service to make it possible for healthcare workers on the frontline to easily access PPE (personal protective equipment). The platform has created an online portal in a matter of days which will allow primary and social carers to order PPE entirely for free from the NHS. Rob Hattrell, vice president of eBay UK, has said “It’s important that we all do what we can to help the NHS at this critical time, we are excited to be a part of this.”
