Limitations of Traditional Models: Human limitations such as fatigue, oversight, and processing constraints hinder healthcare delivery. AI's computational power overcomes these boundaries, offering consistent pe...

NASA develops COVID-19 prototype ventilator in 37 days

NASA has developed VITAL (Ventilator Intervention Technology Accessible Locally), a high-pressure ventilator in 37 days to treat COVID-19 patients. The device is composed of far fewer parts, many of which are available to potential manufacturers, NASA said. "Its flexible design means it can be modified for use in hospitals being set up in hotels and other high- capacity facilities," NASA added.
