Toyota PH, Denso TH donate portable air purifiers to PGH

MANILA: The Philippine General Hospital (PGH) recently took delivery of 20 portable air purifiers from Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP).

The portable devices, donated by Denso Thailand, are Denso Plasmacluster Ion Generators, which "supress and remove airborne viruses, molds, and allergens in small spaces with limited air circulation, making them ideal for use in some of the state hospital's rooms, and inside the cars and shuttles being used by its healthcare workers."

Previously, the devices had been tested with the free shuttle transportation service that TMP and the Toyota Mobility Foundation (TMF) made available to PGH staff during "the height of the lockdowns due to COVID-19."

It should be noted that the PGH is also one of the recipients of Vios units donated by TMP to the Department of Health (DOH) and other government and LGU-run hospitals to provide mobility support for healthcare personnel.
