[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother's a pulmonologist in CA treating COVID patients. He said in their general exprience, folks who need ventilators due to pneumonia caused by typical influenza or other common causes recover about 80% of the time. But with COVID, it's flipped, at they have seen 80% who need a ventilator end up dying. [/quote] I would think that the problem is that with COVID VERY important thing is to cough. The people who have it complain on chest tightness, their chest X rays show a hot mess in their lungs, so if you intubate them and hey can not cough this alone can contribute to the high death rate if you ask me, but instead asks someone who knows better.
