The Weevac 6 is a brand of stretcher specifically created for the transport of babies, such as in hospitals or for patient evacuation. The Weevac 6 was invented by Canadian-born Wendy Murphy in 1985. Wendy got the idea to make it while watching coverage of the Mexico City earthquake, wondering why there wasn't an evacuation device designed specifically for babies.
The origin of the name "Weevac 6" comes from the fact that the device is designed to transport "6 wee babies".
The Weevac 6 ranked at No. 35 on the CBC's miniseries The Greatest Canadian Invention.
