I wondered about the use of ventilators for covid patients through this whole thing too..
Ventilators are designed for critical emergency use only, when a patients body have ceased to function by itself.
Nobody whos body is responsive and basically functioning should be intubated and hooked up to a ventilator, as the risk of infection of the airways is substancial.
Exactly, so if the person is healthy they actually put them into a medically-induced coma for the ventilator. Then rather than the diaphragm naturally allowing air in, a pressurized machine force-pumps air into the lungs with pressure. Nothing natural about it and the mortality rate is high.
