Unfortunately the number of ECMO machines is far cry away from what is required for this to work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracorporeal_membrane_oxygen...

Even if you manage to double or triple capacity unfortunately it is no match to the exponential growth.

We have a lot more ECMO capacity than people think, CPB machines from heart surgery cases can be used to provide ECMO which are at least an order of magnitude more common than classic ECMO machines.
