Along with a shortage of masks and gloves, the spread of COVID-19 has highlighted a great need for specialised machines that help keep severely afflicted patients alive.

Manufacturers are on a mission to produce desperately needed medical ventilators for the coronavirus pandemic, even if it means converting assembly lines now making auto parts.

All the equipment that is normally used for demonstrations, training or trade fairs was immediately made available for clients, a statement said. The novel coronavirus pandemic has overwhelmed hospitals, where some intensive care units are already saturated and at risk of running out of essential equipment, French officials warn.

US President Donald Trump tweeted a"green light" to Ford, General Motors and Tesla to help boost ventilator production. "There is enormous demand" for help, the company's boss Jos Burger told AFP, noting that the technology can be used to print valves for the ventilators. "For the past few days, people the world over have said we need to print parts for ventilators and masks," Lamotte noted.
