I was president of the IET for 2016-17, and have been asked by government to gather practical and innovative ideas from our Engineering communities. So, please enter any ideas you might have in this thread that might help address and mitigate the Covid-19 crisis. Ideas might include digital tracking / monitoring through therapy equipment and beyond. Even ideas outside your usual expertise domain will be welcome. Now’s the time for Engineering to show we can change the world!

Can IET offer a mechanism to match companies looking for additional engineering people at this time - i.e. companies stretched making /servicing ventilators and other medical kit? Appreciate the special skills / training required for medical standards; nonetheless I bet there could be loads of retired / displaced engineers who could prettry quickly come up the learning curve - for design, testing, manufacturing, documentation, sourcing, etc.
