I am from India and this is just a personal theory based on interactions with my doctor and pharmacist friends. Most Indians are dying because of lack of medicines and oxygen, and it’s due to the inept Indian government.
- tasuki 5y agoI heard once someone needs oxygen, their chances aren't all that great anyway. Something like 65% I think?
- arcticfox 5y agoEven so, what would be their chances without oxygen? You might easily be doubling the overall death rate without it
- krcz 5y agoAre you sure that statistic wasn't for ventilators, not oxygen?
- tasuki 5y agoYes, you're right - my bad!
- bluesilver07 5y agoFWIW, just anecdotally I know of quite a number of people whose saturation levels dropped below 80 and then recovered after being hospitalized and given oxygen.
- ahurmazda 5y agoI am hearing the same. Cases that would have been treated with O2 and dex are otherwise turning into fatalities. There was very little health-system to begin with. Now it’s just a humanitarian disaster.
