You take away the killing of the elderly in Nursing Homes and remove the overuse of ventilators and you have at best a bad flu.
Some states over 60% of the deaths came from Nursing Homes and were needlessly slaughter by their governors. It was crazy to pay hospitals twice as much to put patients on ventilators. Typically 40% of patients die on ventilators. In NY 88% died on ventilators. Thousands and thousands of people could have been saved.
The closest I’ve come to this (and that is an anecdote right there - just how many do we know?) is right now, an employee of my husband’s has it and is a Cystic Fibrosis patient. He is younger, but I’m scared for him - and he refused hospitalization because he’s scared to be on ventilator. I bet he thinks its a death sentence. But the purpose is to help. Maybe he could get this treatment if US listens (UK study).
