'Made in China 2025' is very much alive, Omron exec says

Japanese robot maker expects automation demand from social distancing

Omron, the world's largest producer of blood pressure manometers and nebulizers, and Japan's number one manufacturer of thermometers, has seen a boost in demand for its healthcare products.
