I don't think the UK will peak for another 2 weeks yet. Still too may idiots walking the dog with the entire family or going shopping every day.
Hope Boris will make it. Bit harder to cut funding when they have saved your life. I still get the feeling more can be done by industry if only they were given some leadership.
Zerox and HP make laser photocopiers. These use high voltage ionisers to charge the rollers to transfer ink - but if they just fitted them into units with fans and filters they could make thousands of air purifiers for hospital wards and reduce the damage done to hospital staff.
Hoover, Miele, and about 10 other manufacturers make vacuum bags that are Hepa filters - and with the help of cardboard box manufacturers could stamp out particle masks capable of protecting frontline staff.
GE, Phillips and other lightbulb manufacturers could switch production of germicidal UV lamps into high gear, and commercial airlines could turn to freight to distribute these and other goods worldwide. This would make it easier to sterilise areas and equipment.
Tent ,manufacturers could provide pop-up solutions outside hospitals, or supply tents to areas of high population density to allow proper isolation facilities cheaply instead of 6 people living in one household to reduce spread.
Local youth groups could set up local home delivery of basic foods such as milk, bread and eggs for a set fee. Say $5 for one of each dropped outside your door.
If isolation is the key to reduce the spread - then why are there still so many people in the streets and in shops?
