Yes, and the rest of abstract strongly indicates they're still in preliminary collaboration stages, bringing on subject matter experts to figure out the details. I'm not saying it's not worth evaluating, but it isn't going to solve the current bottleneck. Take a look at the link I provided. Their products are literally tailor made for these exact types of situations. Throw all the resources you can at helping them scale production. If necessary use the DPA to force them to open their designs to other manufacturers that can retool their factories to make even more. Sure, by all means have parallel efforts to evaluate designs that can be cheap & scaled even more effectively, but recognize that such solutions will solve the next crisis, not this one (unless we're still in this one a year from now, which, hell I hope not but it doesn't seem beyond the realm of possibility.)
