University College London engineers worked with clinicians at UCLH and Mercedes Formula One to build the device, which delivers oxygen to the lungs without needing a ventilator. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices are already used in hospitals but are in short supply. China and Italy used them to help Covid-19 patients. Forty of the new devices have been delivered to ULCH and to three other London hospitals. If trials go well, up to 1,000 of the CPAP machines can be produced per day by Mercedes-AMG-HPP, beginning in a week's time. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has already given its approval for their use. Ventilator consortium Meanwhile a consortium of UK industrial, technology and engineering businesses in the UK has come together to produce medical ventilators for the NHS. The "VentilatorChallengeUK" consortium includes Airbus, BAE Systems, Ford, Rolls-Royce and Siemens. Companies in the consortium have received orders for more than 10,000 ventilators from the government, although MHRA approval is still pending. Production is due to begin next week. Dick Elsy, chief executive of High Value Manufacturing Catapult, said: "This consortium brings together some of the most innovative companies in the world. "They are working together with incredible determination and energy to scale up production of much-needed ventilators and combat a virus that is affecting people in many countries." They used the turbocharger as the breathing aid ? 😁 ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueray Hypersonic March 30, 2020 Share March 30, 2020 Austria to make basic face masks compulsory in supermarkets Quote VIENNA (Reuters) - Austria will require shoppers to wear basic face masks in supermarkets in a bid to slow the still too-rapid spread of the coronavirus, Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said on Monday. Austria has closed schools, restaurants, bars, cultural venues and other gathering places, including non-essential shops. People have been told to stay at home and work from there if possible. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-austria/austria-to-make-basic-face-masks-compulsory-in-supermarkets-idUSKBN21H16A Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of deaths will be 1.6m to 2.2m if nothing is done to mitigate it. Fauci presented the data to Trump, and Trump extended the existing distancing guidelines to 30 April without much convincing, says Fauci. That number is shocking. Comparatively, approx 400,000 American soldiers died in WW2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is now very likely he might just go down in history as one with the estimated death toll close to WW2 losses. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
