MedWorld Advisors Plays a Key Role in Fighting Corona Virus

Published in May 2020:

MedWorld Advisors plays a key role in fighting Corona Virus. In 2020 We were pleased and honored to announce the Strategic Alliance between Airon USA and GE as part of the current fight against the Corona Virus. Under this strategic agreement, facilitated by MedWorld Advisors, GE in alliance with Ford produced the Model Newton A of the current Airon product Line in the effort to save lives. To date all 50,000 units have been delivered.

We can all make a difference in helping with the current crisis and are humbled for being part of this great partnership. Some key initiatives in the partnership include:

Ford, in collaboration with GE Healthcare, will leverage the design of Airon Corp.’s FDA-cleared ventilator to produce in Michigan

With the full weight of the UAW behind the venture and the full power of Ford and GE Healthcare, production of the GE/Airon Model A-E ventilator is targeted to start the week of April 20 at Ford’s Rawsonville (Mich.) Components Plant

Ford expects to produce 50,000 of the ventilators within the next 100 days, with the ability to produce 30,000 a month thereafter as needed

The simplified ventilator design – licensed by GE Healthcare from Florida-based Airon Corp. – is responsive to the needs of most COVID-19 patients, and operates on air pressure without the need for electricity

This unique, go-fast initiative comes in addition to the previously announced program by Ford and GE Healthcare to increase production capacity of existing GE Healthcare ventilators

We’re thrilled to play a part in the fight against the pandemic. To read the full article on BusinessWire covering the details of the partnership, you can access that here:
