Compared with the year - ago quarter , Henry Schein's worldwide internal sales in local currencies increased a robust 7.2 % , or 6.3 % excluding sales of personal protective equipment ( PPE ) and COVID - 19 related products , " said Stanley M. Bergman , Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein .
