Thought I’d share this. I assume it can use doctors, engineers, programmers, operations experts, regulatory experts, supply chain experts, businessmen, lawyers... almost everyone can bring a skill to help.

Based on this YouTube video, we may be able to do with only 500,000 ventilators.

You would never do this if you could avoid it, but desperate times...

I've been wondering about the propensity to use ventilators or oxygen tanks.  I'm in heart failure, have gone to emergency rooms twice gasping for breath, unable to speak.  Never got within an inch of either.
