GM won't deliver on ventilator contract until August

By artappraiser on Wed, 04/08/2020 - 10:38pm |

Reminds me of what my main beau of my 20's (who was nicknamed by fellow car afficiandoes as "Doctor of the Streets') used to say: GM sucks!

BREAKING CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: General Motors, the first company to be contracted for in the Defense Production Act won’t deliver ventilators until August. For $500 million.

We will have 10s of thousands of ventilators before then, many coming in May & June.

From that thread:

In MD a group of engineers have turned breast pumps into ventilators at a cost of $500 each. Seeking FDA approval. https://t.co/z7k5KeQN0Z
