>Also, why on earth would we be manufacturing new beds for each new occupant in every case? I can think of multiple scenarios: disaster relief is often staged in temporary regions where the most important thing - once the humans have rested - is to evacuate the region, and - also important, leave the beds behind, i.e. pandemic situations, mass casualty events, etc. In addition, it should not be overlooked that the beds can be used as an energy source, so if you air-drop 100 of them to a camp site with 10 victims and 15 responders, they also have something to feed into the kettles while they triage/evacuate. >Tube and canvas camp beds are durable and reusable. In certain response scenarios, this is a liability - i.e. have to be portaged in and out. These cardboard beds could probably survive rather a longer fall from the back of a helicopter or out the back of a speeding emergency response vehicle. >Humanitarian work should be praised, but not if it’s counterproductive self-congratulation. I'm not sure the depth of your critique of this device matches the breadth of its potential application - the extension of which is, after all, the purpose of these kinds of "puff piece"'s .. but I would like to point out that insulting comments are a dime a dozen - whereas a creative conjecture might actually prove a bit more fruitful - especially in the humanitarian context.
