Hospital ventilators are one of the biggest shortages in the COVID-19 pandemic. As a response, scientists and doctors at MIT are building an innovative low-cost ventilator and making the design available online for free, allowing quick access for hospitals around the world. The parts required to make this ventilator cost $500, compared to the $30,000 of a typical ventilator.
