When disaster strikes, supply chains can be disrupted, placing vulnerable populations at risk. But, the coronavirus pandemic is disrupting supply chains worldwide and revealing vulnerabilities on a scale never before witnessed. From shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) to empty grocery store shelves, we are seeing firsthand the fragility of global supply chains.
