‘COVID deaths' caused by infections from ventilators pushed by feds, New York: ICU study
Just the News ^ | 5/31/23 | Greg Piper

Bacterial infections associated with ventilators may have caused most of the deaths attributed to COVID-19 among intubated patients, according to a study funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases that reinforces ongoing scrutiny of early treatment protocols and official COVID death figures.

The findings could help explain why New York City, where ventilators were heavily used early in the pandemic, experienced a dramatic spike in COVID mortality even among non-elderly people that wasn't seen in areas with similar demographics and climate.

The Big Apple went so far as splitting ventilators between patients amid a perceived shortage despite the known risks of lung injury from single-user devices delivering too much or too little oxygen to each shared patient.

Northwestern University researchers used machine learning on medical record data to study the trajectory of nearly 600 "mechanically ventilated patients with severe pneumonia and respiratory failure" in the university hospital's ICU, The Journal of Clinical Investigation paper states. A third tested positive for SARS-CoV-2.

They found "high rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia" in the COVID patients, "suggesting that bacterial super-infections such as VAP may contribute to mortality" credited to COVID, whose "relatively low mortality rate" would be "offset by a greater risk of death attributable to unresolving VAP."

How many people on FR had family members killed by the hospital treatment and not by Covid itself? I had two family members die from the ventilator treatment. No family input or even begging would move them from their course of treatment. What was done should be considered criminal. Fauci should be put on trial due to his insistence that he was "science" and therefore authorized to direct all recommendations as to hospital protocol.

Can’t create a panic without a high mortality rate…

ICU doctors don’t put you on a ventilator for “kicks”...you go on a ventilator when your blood O2 level drops to the point of multiple organ failure/brain damage & death. In other words w/o the vent you are dead anyway. (Regardless of other treatment/meds given).

The actual study mentioned: https://www.jci.org/articles/view/170682

From the study:
“...ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP)”...”VAP was not associated with mortality overall...”

I had a good friend of 35+ years who was quite healthy going into COVID. He died in the hospital after receiving that treatment.

Sound like something they'd do in a Third World country.

Do they also reuse syringe needles in NYC hospitals?

--- "Unsuccessful treatment of VAP is associated with greater mortality. The relatively long length of stay among patients with COVID-19 is primarily due to prolonged respiratory failure, placing them at higher risk of VAP."

Yep, COVID-19 patients can have vary long respiratory failure episodes due to viral pneumonia. The longer you are on the vent the higher the chance of complications, same as any other condition that requires a ventilator. Note that only 190 of 585 patients in this study had COVID-19...the majority of them had some other condition requiring a ventilator to keep O2 levels up and got bad outcomes with “VAP” too.

my brother for sure...he was a healthy man, good weight, no medical issues, and not vaxxed....they attacked him IMO....this was clear across the country but his path was the same as everyone else....low oxygen, vent, trach, feeding tube, heavy meds, not waking up, death....

I detest them for what they did....he was a great and good man.

Nope, just all in with common sense...you don’t breathe/oxygenate blood effectively you die. Simple. Am not a COVID vaxx fan...am over 60 with a couple of comorbidities and still unvaxxed. “Respiratory failure” is a “thing”.

You are all in with the ‘put them all on ventilators’ and excuse it by tripe. They would never even be there if not forced by your fraud.

Huh? You are making less and less sense. I didn’t force anybody to do anything. A ventilator is a medical tool...if you need one you need one...are you proposing euthanasia of people with respiratory failure? “Sorry, ventilators bad....your loved one dies”. BTW: half of all US deaths occur in a medical facility (pre-COVID, 2005, 1.11 million deaths)...must be some kind of medical device conspiracy!!

Useful idjit making excuses for government killing protocol.
Yes people die in medical facilities, your point (other than another dumbA)?

The U.S. government paid to put people on ventilators which usually killed them.
