Generally speaking, 40% to 50% of patients with severe respiratory distress die while on ventilators, experts say. But 80% or more of coronavirus patients placed on the machines in New York City have died, state and city officials say.

Higher-than-normal death rates also have been reported elsewhere in the U.S., said Dr. Albert Rizzo, the American Lung Association’s chief medical officer. And similar reports have also emerged from China and the United Kingdom. One U.K. report put the figure at 66%. A very small study in Wuhan, the Chinese city where the disease first emerged, said 86% died.

Stats like this are skewed quite a bit. Younger people if put on a ventilator survive like 76% of the time. None of it is good and it doesn't directly indicate it is the right course, but just because survival rates are poor among the old doesn't mean it is the wrong course either. I would bet it is more that the older a person is the harder a ventilator is on them and is one of many challenges medical professionals are facing in treatment regiments.
In general or if they have COVID-19? Have a source?

If they have Covid-19. I read it somewhere. Not sure where, I think it was a study by the UK. I will see if I can find it but I just don't toss stuff around.

EDIT: This is not an exact link, but is in reference to the study I read.

https://ricochet.com/742120/covid-19-da ... ntilators/
Favorable outcome by age distribution for the 165 individuals whose cases were resolved are:

16-49 years 76% survived
50-69 years 60% survived
70+ years 27% survived
Also when searching for this I came across an article that brought up an Italian study.
A much larger data set reporting outcomes for 1591 patients in ICUs in Lombardy, Italy between February 20 and March 18, 2020, demonstrated considerably higher rates of mortality depending on age: 29% for those 61-70; 40% for those 71-80; and 55% for those 81 and older. However, many patients in those age groups remained in the ICU at the time the study was completed. For the 22 patients aged 81 and over, 12 had died (55%); 2 had been discharged (9%); and 8 (36%) remained in the ICU. If half of those remaining in the ICU in that age group subsequently died, the overall mortality rate would be 73%; if all of them died, it would be 91%.

Shame Rubio isn't still here, but I'm sure he'll check in with KAT.

So sad. Losing your mom is the toughest part of life. He was just starting to realize all his dreams, and now she is gone. Similar to Ricky. I wish Karl and his entire world the very best.

Didn’t even think of the Ricky parallel.


I’m guessing a call from Mr. Rubio has already taken place.

I can't wait for Butler to offer fake sympathy. It'd be best if he just STFU for once and didn't say anything at all

At least she was able to see KAT blossom into an all-star and all-nba player.

Condolences to KAT and his family. I wish them the best as they work through this.

This virus has taken so many without rhyme or reason, I feel bad for all of those trying to make sense of their loss right now.

Stay Well!! :thumbsup:

It you have to have a device breathe for you, that is bad news...lol, there's no other vantage point to take on that. Doesn't mean you'll die, but there's been reports of people needing such devices for longer than a week. Is it safe to assume you are in the "this is a hoax" category? :lol:
Exactly. It’s fucking rough if you need a machine to breathe for you.
How about you two TV watching geniuses explain to me why they cant breath, and how the ventilator helps them? :lol:

Oh....you mean the TV didnt actually tell you how the virus works?!? Imagine that!

It attacks the iron in red blood cells and oxygen molecules wont stick to it, so you can pump as much air in there as you want and it doesnt fucking matter because the problem is with absorption, not intake.

Ventilators arent a treatment and they dont even directly address the issue. But they sure do give the uninformed TV watching types complete inconsequential bullshit to talk about and pretend to be informed.

Now, stay inside goys.
Hey fuckface...please explain how going on a ventilator is good news. All your other Foxnews babble is irrelevant. I was responding to your stupid remark...not breaking down the virus. Shoot me your address, I'll jizz on a red hat and send it your way :lol:

Show me where I said going on a ventilator is good news asshole. I dont give a fuck about trump you butthurt fagg0t, and nothing I said was political or from any fucking news source smoothbrained fucktards like you will ever see. Now go kill yourself you pathetic ****.

You're a dangerous combination of pig shit thick and rage. I hope you can find peace one day

Fuck your emotions.

I said fag, any examination is an impossibility for you now. All you took from anything that was said was a hot word and you went on your prerecorded NPC dialogue and "omg he said gay he IS gay" logic.

I could have peace if I chose a lobotomized robot existence...how do you do it? Ignorance is bliss.

Thank god we have nurse helpline Rasho here to give us important medical information in this time of great uncertainty. I mean, I was wondering how those treacherous Jews, a Wuhan laboratory, trannys, porn and the Third Reich figured into it and now I have those answers.

You won't find this kind of factual information on TV, gang.
Like that, y'all, pop some more shit.
