The US awarded General Motors and its partner Ventec Life Systems a $489.4 million (Dh1.7 billion) contract to make 30,000 ventilators by the end of August, finalising a deal that briefly was a point of contention for President Donald Trump.
Production will start next week, a GM spokesman said, and the carmaker and Ventec will deliver a fifth of the breathing machines they’re building for the Health and Human Services Department by June 1. The US invoked the Defense Production Act to secure production from the companies after Trump accused GM of moving too slowly and gouging the government. He’s praised the carmaker since then.
GM has been working with Bothell, Washington-based Ventec to boost the company’s production of ventilators used to help Covid-19 patients breathe while being treated for the respiratory disease. The automaker has converted an auto-parts plant in Kokomo, Indiana, to make the devices with paid volunteers from the United Auto Workers union.
In an effort reminiscent of the World War II-era “arsenal of democracy” movement, in which civilian manufacturing plants switched to making munitions, mass manufacturer GM paired up with specialty producer Ventec. Both companies had been working around the clock to find a way to build ventilators in mid March when Trump accused the carmaker of dragging its feet, calling out chief executive Mary Barra by name.
GM is now the first company with a US contract to add to the national stockpile that the federal government maintains, which is expected to run short of medical equipment to dole out to states coping with the coronavirus pandemic.
Shares of GM pared an early gain of as much as 3.9 per cent on Wednesday to trade up 2.2 per cent to $21.76 as of 10:16 a.m. in New York.
Before working with GM, Ventec was making at most 250 ventilators a month. To boost production rates into the thousands, Ventec needed GM’s help enlisting hundreds of parts suppliers to increase output, and the automaker is hiring 1,000 workers who will build the machines at the plant in Indiana.
GM is recruiting paid volunteers from its staff of 300 workers who make auto parts in Kokomo, plus others from a nearby metal stamping plant. But it still needs more people. The company has had at least 1,300 job applicants and is in the process of hiring and training workers in safety protocols, GM spokesman Jim Cain said.
The two companies will be making a scaled-down version of Ventec’s ventilator called the V+ Pro. It only provides ventilation, not other respiratory therapies featured in the company’s proprietary VOCSN system, Mr Cain said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention manages a stockpile that currently has between 12,000 and 13,000 ventilators, according to a report from the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University.
The problem is that the stockpile consists of three different ventilators and only one of them, the LTV1200 made by Becton Dickinson, is ideal for patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, which is typical for the most critical Covid-19 patients, Lewis Rubinson, chief medical officer at Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey, said in an interview. Mr Rubinson worked as a consultant and later was chief medical officer for the US DHHS and its National Disaster Medical System, a role in which he helped build out the country’s strategic stockpile.
Mr Rubinson said Ventec’s unit is portable and would work for Covid-19 patients. He helped develop Ventec’s VOCSN and has an equity stake in the company. He also said the Airon unit being rushed to production by Ford Motor and General Electric, while not ideal, also could work for Covid-19 patients who need ventilation.
Critical care ventilators were added to the national stockpile of emergency supplies starting in 2005 in response to the avian flu, Mr Rubinson said. But at the time, no one planned on a pandemic that would hit multiple countries at once. So the government’s equipment inventory were not ready for an emergency of this size, he said.

Anxiety and work stress major factors
Anxiety, work stress and social isolation are all factors in the recogised rise in mental health problems.
A study UAE Ministry of Health researchers published in the summer also cited struggles with weight and illnesses as major contributors.
Its authors analysed a dozen separate UAE studies between 2007 and 2017. Prevalence was often higher in university students, women and in people on low incomes.
One showed 28 per cent of female students at a Dubai university reported symptoms linked to depression. Another in Al Ain found 22.2 per cent of students had depressive symptoms - five times the global average.
It said the country has made strides to address mental health problems but said: “Our review highlights the overall prevalence of depressive symptoms and depression, which may long have been overlooked."
Prof Samir Al Adawi, of the department of behavioural medicine at Sultan Qaboos University in Oman, who was not involved in the study but is a recognised expert in the Gulf, said how mental health is discussed varies significantly between cultures and nationalities.
“The problem we have in the Gulf is the cross-cultural differences and how people articulate emotional distress," said Prof Al Adawi.
“Someone will say that I have physical complaints rather than emotional complaints. This is the major problem with any discussion around depression."

How to keep control of your emotions
If your investment decisions are being dictated by emotions such as fear, greed, hope, frustration and boredom, it is time for a rethink, Chris Beauchamp, chief market analyst at online trading platform IG, says.
Greed
Greedy investors trade beyond their means, open more positions than usual or hold on to positions too long to chase an even greater gain. “All too often, they incur a heavy loss and may even wipe out the profit already made.
Tip: Ignore the short-term hype, noise and froth and invest for the long-term plan, based on sound fundamentals.
Fear
The risk of making a loss can cloud decision-making. “This can cause you to close out a position too early, or miss out on a profit by being too afraid to open a trade,” he says.
Tip: Start with a plan, and stick to it. For added security, consider placing stops to reduce any losses and limits to lock in profits.
Hope
While all traders need hope to start trading, excessive optimism can backfire. Too many traders hold on to a losing trade because they believe that it will reverse its trend and become profitable.
Tip: Set realistic goals. Be happy with what you have earned, rather than frustrated by what you could have earned.
Frustration
Traders can get annoyed when the markets have behaved in unexpected ways and generates losses or fails to deliver anticipated gains.
Tip: Accept in advance that asset price movements are completely unpredictable and you will suffer losses at some point. These can be managed, say, by attaching stops and limits to your trades.
Boredom
Too many investors buy and sell because they want something to do. They are trading as entertainment, rather than in the hope of making money. As well as making bad decisions, the extra dealing charges eat into returns.
Tip: Open an online demo account and get your thrills without risking real money.

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

Types of bank fraud
1) Phishing
Fraudsters send an unsolicited email that appears to be from a financial institution or online retailer. The hoax email requests that you provide sensitive information, often by clicking on to a link leading to a fake website.
2) Smishing
The SMS equivalent of phishing. Fraudsters falsify the telephone number through “text spoofing,” so that it appears to be a genuine text from the bank.
3) Vishing
The telephone equivalent of phishing and smishing. Fraudsters may pose as bank staff, police or government officials. They may persuade the consumer to transfer money or divulge personal information.
4) SIM swap
Fraudsters duplicate the SIM of your mobile number without your knowledge or authorisation, allowing them to conduct financial transactions with your bank.
5) Identity theft
Someone illegally obtains your confidential information, through various ways, such as theft of your wallet, bank and utility bill statements, computer intrusion and social networks.
6) Prize scams
Fraudsters claiming to be authorised representatives from well-known organisations (such as Etisalat, du, Dubai Shopping Festival, Expo2020, Lulu Hypermarket etc) contact victims to tell them they have won a cash prize and request them to share confidential banking details to transfer the prize money.

Haircare resolutions 2021
From Beirut and Amman to London and now Dubai, hairstylist George Massoud has seen the same mistakes made by customers all over the world. In the chair or at-home hair care, here are the resolutions he wishes his customers would make for the year ahead.
1. 'I will seek consultation from professionals'
You may know what you want, but are you sure it’s going to suit you? Haircare professionals can tell you what will work best with your skin tone, hair texture and lifestyle.
2. 'I will tell my hairdresser when I’m not happy'
Massoud says it’s better to offer constructive criticism to work on in the future. Your hairdresser will learn, and you may discover how to communicate exactly what you want more effectively the next time.
3. ‘I will treat my hair better out of the chair’
Damage control is a big part of most hairstylists’ work right now, but it can be avoided. Steer clear of over-colouring at home, try and pursue one hair brand at a time and never, ever use a straightener on still drying hair, pleads Massoud.
How to protect yourself when air quality drops
Install an air filter in your home.
Close your windows and turn on the AC.
Shower or bath after being outside.
Wear a face mask.
Stay indoors when conditions are particularly poor.
If driving, turn your engine off when stationary.
