I’m not necessarily buying the fact that this is any more serious than the regular flu. Do I know why we need so many ventilators? No, probably because they need them to help people breathe. Do we need that many? Probably not, but better to have than have not. Do we need them for people sick with corona or children rescued from SRA? I don’t know but until I see any evidence I can’t make that decision. I haven’t see. Any evidence either way, and you intentionally left out that ventilators main purpose is to pump air into people’s lungs.

I also don't know. This is just a theory that is going around and there is evidence that supports the theory.

Well duh ventilators put air in the lungs, the whole point of one is to breathe mechanically for people who are unable to breathe themselves. I provided some reasons people would need to breathe with the assistance of a ventilator.

That wasn’t one of your 3 reasons why we need ventilators. That’s my whole point, it’s like you left off the main reason for a need for ventilators. You did not include because people have pneumonia from corona
