"after having been put on double ventilators to blow out his lungs"

Actually, he wasn't intubated per the article. He was put on a heart/lung machine. Seems as though at least his doctors learned the early lessons from last year and didn't vent him.

This guy spent God knows how long in the ICU between being kept alive on an ECMO machine followed by a lung transplant. The medical bills for this soul are already enormous either to his insurer and or Medicaid.

I'll be shocked if by the time health insurance enrollment comes along later in the year if most insurers don't require a COVID vaccination to avoid a surcharge as many tobacco users currently pay.

Exactly.

I wonder what percentage of the people with COVID were/are experiencing impaired breathing for the first time in their lives - and then they panicked?

Do something! Help me!

Pure speculation on my part, but I think tens of thousands of Americans were MASSIVELY over-treated because of breathing-related panic.
