TLDR?

He’s saying the cost (in lives) of a vent shortage due to coronavirus is overblown because most of the patients that are denied vents during a shortage would have died anyway.

Room space is one thing, staffing is another...

You can make all the rooms and vents for days, if you spread your staff way too thin, it's not going to work.

Today, I'm covering 7 pt's on vents, that's double my normal workload.
