Covid-19: UK company makes about-turn and agrees to help SA with ventilators | CowansView

Now, it appears it has backtracked and will offer the drawings and technical advice to Corbett's group to manufacture it locally.

The SAEVP decided to focus on the Nuffield 200 because it is entirely mechanical. It has no electronic components, is portable and does not require electricity to operate. It is one of two companies identified by the NHS which was selected to produce ventilator units to meet emergency demands. After initially publishing details of Penlon's refusal, News24 received dozens of requests to be put in touch with the SAEVP.Offers of assistance came from as far afield as Canada.
