Most times the lungs are already looking like Hurricane Ida, before we put them on Vents. The damage that virus can do to some is horrific. If they don’t go on vents, mortality is 100 percent, we’ve shaved 20 percent of that off and sometimes better if the patient can go onto ecmo...even then it’s often a lung transplant for a lucky few. I’m thankful most people( 98.3 percent) who get the disease will get over it.

What ever would we do if covid were a straight 33 percent mortality disease with 50 percent of the population expected to get some form of the disease during a regional epidemic, like small pox used to be?

whatever we would do if we had a government that took the kung flu seriously and stopped spreading hundreds of thousands of disease carrying invaders across our country during a “global pandemic” like a responsible government should be?...
