A schoolboy in the Philippines has been putting his free time to good use by making dozens of plastic face shields with his home 3D printer, in an effort to protect medical workers fighting a surge in coronavirus cases.
Marcus Chu, 16, has made more than 80 of the protective screens and has photographs of them being used by the frontline medical personnel at risk of exposure to the highly contagious virus, amid critical shortages of protective gear.
Chu said his 3D printer was a Christmas gift that came along just at the right time.
"I feel like it's my opportunity to finally help in a very serious situation, even if it's just in a little way," the 10th-grader said.
