Universitas Indonesia Unveils New Ventilator to Counter Covid-19

She added that funds for Covent–20 production will come from donations from companies and communities affiliated with UI’s Engineering Faculty Alumni Association.

The faculty noted that demand for the ventilator is already high.

“[UI] has received requests from 180 hospitals, both Covid-19 referral hospitals and those with emergency wards, for the ventilator,” said Engineering Faculty spokesman Muhamad Sahlan.

“Their distribution will be determined by their level of urgency and use, as well as the donors’ recommendation.”
