You have a strange definition of helping

It truly sucks OP
My FIL went into the ICU on Wednesday. It's not looking good either. My wife has been in a daze the past few days.

Thank y’all for any prayers.
Except for being a Dr., I could have written that.

We didn't even know he had COVID until they were bringing him to the hospital. They hid it from us (and my wife's siblings too) for some reason. Maybe they didn't want them to worry. I don't know. My FIL is a bit of a strange guy, so

My dad had a reaction to the infusion two weeks ago.
Vent is next if he doesn’t get better. It’s been downhill and at some point, they’re just get too weak to survive the shock of intubation where initially they may have.

I just seems the biggest complication from ventilators is hypercapnia due to incomplete respiration.
Correct. Most of them oxygenate well but dont ventilate well.
But at some point these people are breathing 30-40 times a minute for days and literally dont have the strength to do it themselves anymore even with bipap. Its the vent and have a coin flip at living or you die right there

We'll keep him in our prayers.
A lot of this going around. A friend of mine's dad has been on a ventilator for over a week. Older, smoker, heavy, and unvaccinated.

That would have killed him with the quickness

I'm just dumbfounded that many doctors are ignoring the MATH Protocol in these cases.
