What do you mean by this? It’s not really anything to do with capitalism - for some reason COVID affects the lungs differently to other pneumonias (which would normally require ventilation in ITU) and CPAP (which wouldn’t normally be helpful in these situations) actually provides the support needed. It was unexpected - there’s a good article on EMCRIT about it.
CPAP such a better solution to invasive drug support-heavy ventilators
Amazing the things we learn
Will we remember them when capitalists try to take back this narrative?
