A breathing aid that can help keep coronavirus patients out of intensive care has been created in under a week.

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.

lol. That story's about C-PAP machines being used. Many of us here use C-PAP for better sleeping. They didn't invent it in under a week; they copied it in under a week.

The new design is an adapted and improved version, created via a process called reverse engineering. The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency gave its approval to the device over the weekend. The first 100 machines are being delivered to the UCLH for clinical trials. If they prove an asset in treating Covid-19 patients they can be rapidly rolled out to NHS hospitals across the UK.
