Ford Motor
• Ford Motor Co said it would partner with GE Healthcare to expand production of
GE’s ventilators, while developing a simplified design that Ford could build at one of
its plants. Ford also said it will work with 3M Co to increase production of 3M’s
respirators, while also developing a simpler model to be built in a Ford plant.
• The automaker said it may make face shields for first responders to use with N95
respirator masks at an undisclosed Michigan plant, at a rate of up to 100,000 a
week.

5.
Toyota Motor
• Toyota Motor Corp said it is finalizing deals with at least two companies to help
increase production of ventilators and respirators.
