MN COVID Response

2020-06-15T20:37:48Z

DanR: /* Projects */ reorganize

== Protocol ==

It's essential to follow health and safety protocol when getting involved:

* If you have any of the these symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath) do not get involved in any of the projects
* Even non-symptomatic people can carry and transmit the virus, therefore when handling material or making items always wear a mask.

If you need to come inside our facility for some reason, you will be expected to follow [[media:MN COVID Facility Access Policy.pdf|our facility access policy]].

== Tour of MN during production ==

Take a [https://youtu.be/Afzn3Jdt0vw video tour of the shop].

== Projects ==
=== Maker Nexus Projects ===
Visit [http://covidshieldnexus.org COVID Shield Nexus] for additional information on the overall program.

Our local county health officer's orders now allow our makerspace to reopen to members. We are winding down our COVID response and will make final shipments in June. (We are continuing to accept and distribute cloth face masks.) We appreciate your willingness to help, and encourage you to reach out to [[#Projects continuing to produce PPE|other organizations]] continuing to make and distribute PPE.

=== Projects continuing to produce PPE ===
As we wind down our participation, if you'd like to produce PPE, or if you have PPE you want to share, some active projects we know of are:

* [https://www.getppe.org/3d-printing-partners/ GetPPE]
* [https://3dforcovid.com/ 3D for COVID]
* [https://getusppe.org/makers/ Get Us PPE]

(If you find that any of these are no longer active, please update the Wiki to reflect that.)

=== Other Interesting Projects ===

A number of other organizations have good projects going to help in this crisis. You can list your favorites here.

== In SF Bay Area ==

Maker Nexus is coordinating an effort. You can read the projects above and get involved with us. Each project will tell you how to contact our lead for that project. We may also be able to supply you material for the effort; we are sourcing what we can.

== Outside the SF Bay Area ==

If you are not in the Maker Nexus area (SF Bay Area, South) you could start your own effort in your area. Your effort is two pronged: find people and supplies to make stuff; find organizations that need stuff. You don't want to make things and then have no where to deploy them.

Some ideas of places you can contact in your area:

* The non-profit that supports your local hospital; there is often a foundation
* A CCRC (continuing care retirement community) near you
* On NextDoor mention what you are doing and ask for contacts into your local health care system

You should consider how you will organize your local group of volunteers. Maker Nexus uses [http://slack.com Slack], it's free to get started. Others use Discord. Others chat by Skype or Zoom every day.

== I want to Help ==

As mentioned above, our project pages each have instructions. If these projects are not for you or you have other skills to contribute, you might consider registering at the Tinker's Guild Tech Forum's [https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/thetinkersguild/emergency-response-production-for-medical-devices--t48636.html Emergency Response Production For Medical Devices And Accessories page] (external link).

DanR:

== Conversations with [[User:Jschrempp|Jim Schrempp]] ==

Thanks for adding all the categories to our wiki pages. That is a great idea. [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])

I'm not a mediawiki guru... Is there some way we can get in touch through email without my posting my email publicly here? Like an "email a member" function? [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])

I found this page you created in the orphans list - it isn't linked in any other wiki page. Did you intend this to be a draft, or should we link it into the site? [[CiviCRM]] [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])

I added the file upload license options. Turns out we have to set those options. [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])

== Use of references on [[Fork lift charger]] ==

Saw your message on Jim's page. If you'd like to use Wikipedia-style <code><ref></code> on [[Fork lift charger]], please let me know which templates you'd like to use and I'll copy or transclude them from Wikipedia (with appropriate licensing).
