The only reasons I can think are:
1. The 50,000 dollar reimbursement for ventilator usage
2. Trying to kill people to keep the “numbers” up and scare us
3. The doctors are retards
4. A patient is already maxed on BiPAP with SpO2's in the 70's and is on the cusp of 2° multisystem damage and death as a result. Put more simply, vents are employed for CV19 when odds of survival w/o them approach zero.

UC Health seems to disagree and says anything south of an SpO2 of 85% is put on a ventilator.

The Pan American Health Organization technically says LESS than 90% if “not improving”

So yea…back to my main points. It’s one of the three I posted and you kinda just agreed with me that the current approach being recommended is incorrect.
