I was wondering if that's what a ventilator really looks like. God, I hope I never find out.

Chances of dying of Chinese virus in ICU on a ventilator: 41/100. A really good pulmonary therapist may be able to reduce that to 16/100. That person won't continue functioning anywhere near their best after losing so many patients. That's the real shortfall in our healthcare system, and nobody's talking about it.

HCQ saves lives much more reliably. Thousands studied with the severe form of the disease, 0 deaths 0 side effects.

Odds aren’t anywhere near that high. Odds are that if you get the virus you will have mild flu symptoms and a fever for over a week, or have no symptoms and just be a carrier.
