This article&amp;#x27;s title is alarming, but most of its content is mainstream. Lung protective ventilation - the standard approach for ARDS (which COVID-19 seems to cause) - avoids high pressure and high volume ventilation.&lt;p&gt;Broadly, I would suggest that interested people read Corey Hardin&amp;#x27;s response to the cacophony of voices saying that COVID-19 respiratory failure is not ARDS: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;mailchi.mp&amp;#x2F;e10a89ac5988&amp;#x2F;tz4idnzryr-4388986?e=96507de8e5&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;mailchi.mp&amp;#x2F;e10a89ac5988&amp;#x2F;tz4idnzryr-4388986?e=96507de...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Some doctors moving away from ventilators for virus patients</title><url>https://apnews.com/8ccd325c2be9bf454c2128dcb7bd616d</url></story>

But wouldn’t we expect that? If the situation is dire enough to put someone on a ventilator then they’re probably less likely to live anyway?&lt;p&gt;Edit: They do mention that it’s higher than other diseases relatively speaking, but don’t we expect Covid-19 to be higher than say, the flu, given it seems to primarily target the upper respiratory area?</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Some doctors moving away from ventilators for virus patients</title><url>https://apnews.com/8ccd325c2be9bf454c2128dcb7bd616d</url></story>
