biswarooproy one more reserve supporting your claim.. You are right.

The statistics appear to speak for themselves unfortunately!

They are - oxygen masks

I've been following Dr cameronks for a while now. He knows what he's talking about. If I got that virus, I'd want him as my doctor.

BaronianConsult NHS doctors? What do you say? I'm no doctor but oxygen not attaching itself to haemoglobin? eh? Medical professionals only please?👍

johnmknox HydroxyChloroquine we know most patients with Covid_19 who were prescribed HydroxychloroquineAndAzithromycin didn't need a ventilator. Why are we still waiting on a rushed, deadly BillGatesVirus when we have an cost effective cure that works on multiple diseases & is safe?

Torture and a big charge on the medical bills.

A worrying report especially the success rate of these ventilators. Perhaps urgent research should be done world wide to see if this is true.

Ophelia04987041 I thought they were meant to be ventilated on their tummies ? But I’m no medic though but that’s what various consultants were saying

80% of people die on ventilators. Clearly the treatment doesn't work.

How about we leave medical professionals to decide how best to care for patients.

I used to work in the veterinary field, I have no faith in ventilators. We had a saying, 'prolonged death'!

I suspected that for a long while.

Conservative tabloids trying to take the heat off incompetence in government by blaming be ventilators

Another reason we should not have given into panic over the virus.

Irresponsible journalism.

Max out the O2 and turn down the ventilators FFS. Trying to pump full force into lungs that are as brittle as paper is obviously going to do more harm than good.

With the deaths experienced, it begs the question ‘Are the ventilators being used properly in that those working it are expertly trained?’

Idesirecrown We should hold on, Fg shouldn't procure ventilators yet.. please read

Oh ffs, this is bollocks. If someone requires a ventilator it is because their body even with supplemental oxygen (high amounts) couldn’t sustain their SpO2. Yes there are risks using ventilator, but these are not new and well immediate death is the other option.

Hmmm

Showing the photo of that patient is disgraceful. Shame on you.

Good job we'll never have enough then.

Maybe that explains why your outlook is grim if you go on one and the longer you're on it the less likely you are to go home

Buying death?

To much pressure is being used in ventilators damaging lungs permanently. The Protocol settings on ventilators must be lowered!

I hope the Daily Mail and and other media read this and start saving lives listen to that doctor otherwise thousands are going to die from use of these ventilators

Give me a fucking break

I tweeted something similar last night oxygen is not attaching itself to the haemoglobin and when you put someone on a ventilator you are forcing oxygen into them but it's not doing it's job so you are killing them you shouldn't be treating the virus

Now they say , FFS
