A very significant percentage of the deaths in March and April were due ...


to intubation. It was stated time and time again that 80% of the patients that go on a ventilator don't come off ... so why did doctors keep doing it? We lost literally thousands of people because doctors didn't know enough about treatment options. Now that we are using ventilators as a last resort, far fewer people are dying. The virus wasn't killing a lot of those people - it was the intubation resulting in lung swelling that caused the death.
