Tote Air Purifying Respirator (TAPR)

TAPR is a homemade Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) to protect healthcare professionals from COVID19.

Health care professionals are out of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). As we all sit at home and practice social distancing, we can make PPE. The TAPR design is easy to make, the parts are readily available, it costs about $125, and it will help protect our health care professionals. COVID19 is on track to cause more deaths than World War 2. The time to act is now. Help make TAPRs!

If you have PPE to donate, or you build a TAPR, please go to Masks for Heroes to donate to a health care provider near you.
