It sounds like a painful nightmare getting intubated. Tracheotomy for me
please.

yep, intubation is last resort. and of those 40% many will still die from post
intubation pnemonia and infection unrelated to the COVID. Even experienced
respiratory techs do a ton of laryngeal/tracheal damage upon insertion under
good conditions. Rapid Sequence Intubation is high pressure many times under
less than ideal conditions (ie coding).
Skimmed an article that theyre beginning to thing that RSI is doing more harm
than good and looking toward postitive pressure treatments akin to CPAP/BIPAP

40% is a pretty average survival rate for intubated patients. Great for
Covid 19 from what I've read.

On today’s Pence/Birx/Fauci show I heard someone say how wonderful it was
that New Orleans was reporting 40% of intubation patients coming off the
ventilators rather than croaking.
That’s pretty scary when a 40% survival rate is great news.
