To meet the unmet demand for the medical protective equipment, the market players are performing several actions. For instance, in March 2020, Battelle Memorial Institute, the manufacturer of N95 respirator masks and other medical protective equipment had FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to support the safety and security of the front-line healthcare workers as they face critical shortages of medical protective equipment. Further, in March 2020, Honeywell International, Inc. announced to expand its operations at its Smithfield, R.I. eye protection products plant for the manufacturing of millions of N95 masks. In addition, many designers, luxury brands and fashion conglomerates are working together to resolve the shortages of masks and other medical protective equipment caused by COVID-19 pandemic outbreak in some of the hardest-hit countries, in order to address the supply shortage of medical protective equipment.Such efforts to meet the increasing demand for medical protective equipment is expected to boost the medical protective equipment market growth. 

Several governments are making significant efforts to meet the growing demand for protective medical equipment. For instance, the UK government has eased the administrative requirements and barriers to imports of the medical protective equipment to provide safety to healthcare and other personnel. There is also a shortage of essential equipment required to care for critically ill patients in industrialized economies such as the US hospitals, including medical protective equipment for the medical staff. 

Consequently, the sufficient development and distribution of all forms of equipment during the global COVID-19 pandemic is critical for the treatment of patients. Furthermore, the advent of technology has enabled the suppliers to use social media to obtain medical protective equipment directly. The government recently lifted the FDA guidelines in the midst of the pandemic outbreak, specifying that N95s respirators, licensed by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, should be used by health care staff to counter the global pandemic.
