CURA (Connected Units for Respiratory Ailments) aims to convert shipping containers into plug-in Intensive-Care Pods for the COVID-19 pandemic. The units could be as fast to mount as a hospital tent, but as safe as an isolation ward, thanks to biocontainment with negative pressure. The project was initiated by
@crassociati , with the sponsorship of #unicredit.
@projema_engineering has joined the international and open-source task force such as MEP Engineering, contributing to the engineering of electrical, special and thermo-fluidic systems.
