A Vermont team has invented an emergency ventilator. The “Vermontilator” is simple and inexpensive, and it could be rolled out quickly in response to the #COVID19 pandemic—and the huge shortage of ventilators needed to treat people. ⁠

A commercial ventilator can have 1,500 parts supplied from more than a dozen countries; engineer Carl Silver built the first prototype in one day with parts he found in his house and lab. The team is now seeking emergency review from the FDA. “This new ventilator has amazing potential to help quickly. It’s not just simple—it’s innovative and elegant,” says Dr. Anne Dixon. ⁠
