I’m particularly proud of the way in which we’ve collaborated with organizations to do our part in contributing to the fight against COVID-19, including our collaboration with OESH to design and produce a 3-D printed respirator mask for use during this N95 mask shortage. In addition, we are determined to be as transparent as possible in this increasingly fluid situation. Operational decisions are being based off the best and most current information we have in any given moment, and we are continuously reevaluating as we obtain new information. I’m extremely proud of, and grateful to, the Luna team for the flexibility, courage and dedication they’ve shown in response to our approach.”
