GlobalData: Ventilator industry prepares for second wave of COVID-19 outbreaks

Following reports that the second wave of COVID-19 is almost inevitable towards the winter
the ventilator industry is working with government and third-party partners to prepare for the potential shortage. GlobalData expects the market will reach $5.2bn by end of 2020, expanding more than four times compared to 2019.

If COVID-19 cases surge during the second wave, demand for ventilators could increase again. The European Commission (EC) signed framework contracts with Philips to supply medical ventilators to EU hospitals, while Celestica and Starfish recently signed a contract to provide 7,500 more ventilators to Health Canada in Q4 2020. In addition, wearable devices maker Fitbit plans to shift its supply chain to make emergency-use ventilators and Foxcoon Technology Group recently completed the regulatory requirements to manufacture 10,000 Medtronic Puritan Bennett 560 ventilators over 2021.

Now the head of the World Health Organisation (WHO) has warned Europe is still at risk of a second wave of COVID-19.
WHO chief Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) that the COVID-19 pandemic was “still accelerating”.
During his opening speech, Dr Tedros said: 'The pandemic is still accelerating.

As Vaccine Skepticism In U.S. Grows, Experts Recommend Strategies For Covid-19 Vaccination Campaign

As polling suggests only half of America's population would be willing to get the Covid-19 vaccine if it were available, a panel of scientific and academic experts on Thursdays released a set of recommendations for how to boost confidence in vaccines, including appointing community spokespeople and making the vaccine free to all and available at familiar places like centers for worship.

There could be a "flare up" in the NL coming in the next week or two since the weather has changed and noq we have an unusually cold summer ahead. It has been raining quite a bit over the last 2 days and the outside temperature has been below 20 - as if it were early spring or autumn already.

I looked at the weather forecast (2 weeks ahead) and it said these temperatures will continue for these 2 weeks. I think that it is safe to assume that the rest of july will be this cold.

Bye bye, summer.

You're worried becouse you can't take a sunbath anymore :>), or because a new period of restrictions/lookdown is coming
 
I knew two people who signed up to get tested, waited over 2 hours, got impatient and left. They never got tested. Later, they both got a phone call informing them they tested positive for the coronavirus.

I’m not saying the virus doesn’t exist or isn’t a danger to those who are already in bad health, but surely they’re inflating the numbers a bit?

Neither of those. It is just that when temperatures drop below 20 - around 15ish, that people not only tend ot underestimate the weather and dress to lightly, but with the rain, one tends to catch a cold quicker. This'd mean more illness like the cold/flu and more 'misdiagnosis' - I hope the truth comes to light soon, what some have been reporting that the numbers have been inflated in some cases and in others not reported at all.
