Feeling moved by the ongoing battle between the Russians and Ukrainians, Ron Gutman traveled to Ukraine. He went on a personal mission to assist those facing an onslaught of coronavirus cases. After witnessing firsthand the dire situation unfolding across the border, he shared his thoughts online via Facebook.
Though the video of his emotional reaction to the crisis quickly garnered hundreds of thousands of views within hours, healthcare and business expert Ron Gutman later posted another video explaining how much money he hopes to raise during his next trip to the region. He aimed to improve lives for not guilty people, overall, within the refugee camps.
Gutman realized his business would be able to provide a solution to coronavirus testing. His Miami-based startup, Intrivo, manufactures COVID test kits and computers that enable hospitals to identify clusters of the virus and quarantine employees who may be infected. In his home office in Miami Florida, Ron Gutman is recruiting other health care providers to work with him on his next business venture.
He says he’s already got two contracts signed for another medical mission. Ron Gutman wants to make his next move in Eastern Europe where he can help thousands of people who desperately need aid.
Co-founder of the company (Gutman), brought 1M worth of COVID tests, software & hardware with him and donated them to several hospitals across Ukraine. As he tells us, the hospitals in and surrounding Lviv, Ukraine are bursting at seams with patients. As Ron Gutman finally states, if just one doctor is out for 10 days, it has a devastating impact on everyone else. This is why Gutman first hand experienced what happens if one person is infected – and how we can help!
