also i have to say i've been thinking about it ever since he said it

and even though it's not gonna happen, trump taking the HCQ to prove it's safe and then dying of it is literally the funniest scenario that I can even imagine. i'm having a super hard time even coming up with a funnier outcome that's similarly impossible

I legitimately hope BoJo dies choking to death on his own lung juice.

His death will be cool and good and cause for a great deal of celebration.

Most of the people put on a ventilator die anyway and I doubt being hooked up to an ECMO machine is any different. It's a last ditch effort. There are also not many of these devices to go around.

if boris dies and half of cspam dies from laughing does that get counted as covid deaths? if im gonna die i wanna make sure i do my part to make the counter go up

It'll be counted as more deaths by communism because CORVID-19 came from a communism country.

The tldr is that if you are at a point where you need or are on a ventilator or other such device you are fairly hosed and they can't do anything for you.

The rich and powerful can isolate better but if they get it and get it bad they are pretty much still hosed like the rest of us.

Ecmo has like 60-70% survival rate for severe respiratory failure. you have to be pretty anticoagulated and 10% end up having a stroke.

Hypothetically you could ECMO someone indefinitely but in reality it doesn't work like that, it's an emergency procedure and a lot of people don't come off it alive.

If your heart or lungs are just hosed they won't do ECMO, it's for like, "this person's lungs/heart are gonna recover but they need some time to rest" kinda poo poo

It's not like you can talk or do poo poo when your lungs are being bypassed for example

the ventilator isn't treatment i think is the important thing to note. the ventilator (or ecmo) just keeps your body alive while they basically become religious and pray you start healing or responding to other treatment.

it's usually not a big deal to stick someone on a ventilator and give them a few days to see (comparatively, it's still a big deal and a last resort) the problem w/ covid is how many need ventilators and how long they need them for, some people do recover but only after 2 weeks on ventilators, and a lot of other people spend the same 2 weeks on a ventilator then crash anyway.

This is a myth I throw all my salt and yeast in the water right away and all my baked goods are fine

It's more likely that your yeast is just expired, did you keep it in the fridge after opening? It will die at room temp after it's open
