It’s a bit of a catchall that describes measures that can be taken when ventilators are not available but does not state that CPAP machines are or can be used as respirators.

True.
I guess it seems to me to be a sort of logical question to someone not in the medical field. Vents help you breathe. CPAP machines help you breathe.
In totally different manners and degrees of course.

It doesn't say a watermelon can't be used as a respirator either. Guess I need to run to the produce department tomorrow.
