Wow... I had no idea it was so low.
Since you seem to be knowledgeable, if ventilating isn't a big-impact intervention, what's the point of flattening the curve? Is there some other intervention that hospital is doing that actually makes a more meaningful difference that can't be done at home?
Or is it maybe just psychological?
- lucretian 7y agoi'm not sure. i'm not a doctor. at minimum, flattening the curve is buying time for therapies and vaccines. that study may be overly pessimistic. elsewhere, i think i saw 50/50 survival rates for ventilated patients but i don't have a source at hand.
