Lots of message manipulation going on. The Detroit News has published a few in-depth articles over the past week on the auto industry's involvement in respirator production. GM's voluntary effort began more than a week ago and involves not only GM plants but also manufacturers in GM's supply chain.

Today's DN issue states:
"But GM said it's already "working around the clock" with Bothell, Washington-based Ventec Life Systems and its suppliers to help boost production of its medical devices that help COVID-19 patients in severe cases breathe. Ventilators built at Kokomo Operations [GM plant] could be shipped as early as next month, and GM said it's donating its resources at cost."
