Yes. This. Incredibly desperate times here.
- arcticbull 7y agoIf it's that desperate force companies to make them. Don't pin your hopes and dreams on a fantasy that you can build a large-scale medical device in two weeks.
- 7thaccount 7y agoHow can you expect that if they're at max capacity? I guess the government could throw major bucks at it.
- arcticbull 7y agoThe problem isn't that there is a lack of ventilator designs it's that there's a lack of physical ventilators which means it's a manufacturing/supply chain/logistics problem not an R&D problem. That won't be solved with yet another design.
- freepor 7y agoRamping up a vacuum cleaner factory to produce ventilators will take much longer than trying to find a design that can turn a vacuum cleaner into a ventilator. What is solved with a novel design is the repurposing of a product that a factory already has the ability to produce.
