to supply lines throughout the country. Nowhere was this more evident than in
the healthcare industry. Among the biggest impact was the disruption in supply
lines related to personal protective equipment (PPE) and patient care needs
(e.g., beds, ventilators, and medications). Use your text as a resource to
complete the following assignment as well as one other resource from the
