I'll state that my wife -an ICU nurse- has stated the same thing. A man dying from COVID19 claiming its a fake virus as he was being sedated to have a tube shoved down his throat passed away days later still believing it was fake. He was one of the first deaths in our region. She broke down hard that night, things are just ramping up here.
- petertodd 6y agoFrankly given what we now know about overuse of ventilators, that the man was still speaking at that point is concerning. https://www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2020/04/24/ventilator-study https://www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2020/04/24/ventilato...
- TheCapn 6y agoWithout reading through the article and its sources, are we surprised that patients who were experiencing severe enough symptoms to warrant a ventilator were also teetering on the brink of death?
- petertodd 6y agoWhat I'm surprised at is they are still healthy enough to be talking, yet fit the criteria for ventilation, given what we now know. I'm no doctor. But everything I read in mainstream sources indicates it's well accepted that ventilators were overused earlier in the pandemic.
