DLSU students develop a distribution support model, anticipating issues when a COVID vaccine becomes available

Project Lead Dr. Charlle Sy of the Industrial Engineering Department of the DLSU, said that she along with her team during the onset of the pandemic, witnessed how the current healthcare system got overwhelmed with the surge of COVID-19 cases.

Sy mentioned that during that scenario, medical practitioners, pharmaceutical companies turned to repurposing commercially-available drugs like Remdesivir, to treat COVID patients which are only limited. “One of the questions was that: How do we actually allocate these resources, do we give them to the most vulnerable? Those that probably would be under the senior age category? Or do we give them to those that would have the highest chance of surviving the disease?” she said.

“We want to get the word out there that we’re doing something like this, because we believe that other people could help us enrich this by giving their own ideas and their own insights,” Sy said.
