in addressing what was thought to be a complicated task has however raised a few eyebrows.
British TV personality Robert Peston queried on Twitter whether “Dyson may have jumped [the] gun,” and that, “Dyson was possibly trying to put pressure on [the] government to give approval by disclosing its ventilator plans.” However, the spokesman said that “the order has been placed” and they have not been contacted by Peston or any members of his production team.The spokesperson could not yet commit to a date when the equipment will hit hospital wards, but he confirmed that there would be “a last round of testing” before it goes into production. Dyson state that the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has been involved throughout the 10 day journey so far, “hence the order.
The spokesman added that although it’s too early to cost, “Dyson [is] not doing this for profit.” The CoVent is set to go into production in the coming weeks.The call for ventilators came after the U.K.’s Department for Health and Social Care warned that the reported 8,175 devices currently available to the 60 million people across Britain and Northern Ireland are not nearly enough.
The initial order of 10,000 units from the UK Government, was on an open-book basis but Dyson is now looking to make the ventilator available overseas. A further 5,000 will be donated to the international effort.Dyson’s letter to staff says, “Ten days ago the UK Government requested a design for a ventilator that was safe, effective, efficient in conserving oxygen, easy to use, bed-mounted, portable and not needing a fixed air supply.
Apparently it sucks...
I’d feel more relaxed about it if you’d referred to him as, “Philanthropist Industrialist” rather than “Billionaire”. At least you didn’t call him “Singapore-Based Brexit Supporter”.
I understand he moved Dyson HQ to Singapore during Brexit but isn’t he still also a non domicile with offshore account in the Channel Islands ? Just asking. Might be wrong. Asking for a friend.
