I can clearly picture this loser bumbling around the store, going the wrong way down aisles, loudly complaining about having to use hand sanitizer, and then indignantly huffing his way out when the poor staff has to keep reminding him to follow the basic and common sense rules.

It's a shtick deliberately played to radicalize their base

yeah gently caress it yolo

also uptodate advises against high peep which is what a lot of people were doing early on which makes no loving sense because ARDS isn't a new thing

also here's a new nightmare for you. straight from the medical literature

quote:

Neurologic complications, in particular encephalopathy manifesting with agitated delirium, appear to be common in critically ill patients with COVID-19. In one series of 58 patients with COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), delirium/encephalopathy was present in approximately two-thirds of patients [1]. In addition, 3 of 13 patients who had brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were found to have an acute ischemic stroke; eight of the MRI studies demonstrated leptomeningeal enhancement. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in seven patients was acellular, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays of CSF were negative for the virus. It is unclear whether the neurologic complications noted in this and other reports are due to critical illness, medication effects, or represent more direct effects of cytokines or the SARS-CoV-2 virus [1-3]. (See "Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): Critical care and airway management issues", section on 'Clinical features'.)

Believing in conspiracy theories is a cognitive defect of a second-rate mind. Rather than admit honest ignorance and put the hard work into learning about something complicated and important, lots of folks would rather watch a wacky 10 minute YouTube video that exposes the SECRETS hidden from the SHEEPLE so that they get to feel smart and informed without putting in any of the work of actually educating themselves

this reads like a conspiracy theory

Just went to go do some shopping for the lady in a chair in my apartment building. Shits been pretty hard for her at the shops so I've been picking it up for her instead to make life a little easier.

Today is lovely outside so it was a pleasant walk right up until I got to the shopping centre. Lifting the restrictions slightly here has opened the floodgates. Wall to wall people everywhere and queues of cars to get into the parking lot.

Noped right the gently caress out of there and will try again when they open tomorrow. There was not a single mask in sight either, just everyone wanting to die.

Want some COVID hot goss straight from the ICU?

I talked to an ICU PA tonight, and there's a theory going around that the reason COVID patients on ventilators are dying at a documented 80%+ rate might be because the vents are possibly initiating or worsening cytokine storms. Unlike the usual ARDS where you can use high pressure to push back against the transudate in the alveoli, for COVID there's no spill over, instead it's interstitial edema causing swelling and decreased blood perfusion. So the V/Q mismatch is more Q than V, so venting patients with crazy high pressures does dick all since there's no blood around to actually carry the O2 to tissues, and all that pressure from the vent causes further injury and worsening of outcomes. Oops!

I don't even want to think of the number of patients we sent to get vented early because that's the standard of care for ARDS.

My chief resident buddy was running a COVID vent farm a couple weeks back and he said he was "running a mortuary." Yep.
