At WakeMed and UNC hospitals, 100% of COVID-19 patients on ventilators are unvaccinated, they said. At all WakeMed hospitals, only 1 in 10 ICU patients are fully vaccinated, and at Duke, all the patients on ECMO, a form of life support used for only the sickest patients, are unvaccinated.

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought ventilators greatly increased the risk of pneumonia, and triggering bigger issues.
There is so much disinformation out there. I am not a doctor, but have had experience with end of life issues.
It is very hard to listen to people give opinions who have no idea what they are talking about. It must be even harder if you are a doctor in a hospital dealing with Covid patients, and then be accused of trying to kill these very same patients.
I think if putting a patient on a ventilator is the only way to get the patient oxygenated, then the patient is intubated. Deal with the complications later.
I can hear the conversation now…
“Gee, doc, if we put him on a ventilator he will have pneumonia later. . Nurse, if we don’t put him on a vent now he will die now”
I wouldn’t say it’s “very hard;” it’s just annoying.
Just like having to read arrogant, condescending or supercilious comments can be annoying.
I mostly just swat them away like a pesky mosquito.
Interesting how this news contradicts what is happening in Israel and other highly “vaccinated countries”.
Did they take the jabs? Remember you can take the jabs, it not be considered vaccinated for 2 weeks or between jabs 1 and 2.
Are you in the medical profession?
Correction:
Unvaxxed COVID-19 patients placed on ventilators "as punishment"
That'll larn 'em!
Regards,
lies....made up lies.....
remember too, that remdesivir and the vent are what is killing many people, per Dr. Kardis, so its not surprising that they would throw the unwashed on to vents....
Yea, just like that. Only the life preserver is an anchor and takes you right down to Davey Jone's locker.
I have heard the same from doctors in other parts of the country - COVID cases in ICU are overwhelmingly unvaccinated.
The few vaccinated are fat and old.
How many of the “unvaccinated” that are on ventilators were given remdesivir by the hospital?
Without that bit of information this whole piece of propaganda put out by WRAL is typical of their communist controlled fear porn spew. They have become unwatchable.
Sure you have, Bobo.
The few vaccinated are fat and old.
All them doctors told you that? Fat and old? Really?
Nice try.

Don’t forget to ask about the “2 week” rule...
You can’t have it both ways. You can’t have a vaccine that is very effective in preventing serious illness AND STILL have a public health emergency. Alternately, if you have a vaccine that is very effective in preventing serious illness, then those individuals who can’t or won’t take the vaccine have a problem, not the rest of us.
Do not, I repeat, do not live in fear. Live each day the free man you were made to be.
Beat me to it.
Oh my, this was WRAL pimping the fear porn yesterday....the children....the children...it’s so scary for the children...
This was WRAL reporting 4 days ago before they got the word to PUMP THE KIDDIE COVID FEAR PORN right in time for liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to claim 100,000 children are hospitalized with COVID and are on ventilators..
If they have time to produce this fun dance piece, hard to believe things are so dire for the children.
Don’t watch WRAL. They will look right in that camera and lie right to your face.
Quit casting aspersions on my character.
Don’t address me further. It is not welcome.
You add nothing of substance to the discussion, just insults and harassment.
this week a hospital killed a lady from my church by putting her on a ventilator against her will and against her husband's will
Your fear is palpable. I’m curious why it’s so important to you that others bow to the fear as you have.
