Scary story about long term effects from an ICU stay with a ventilator.

This is more than just about who dies from COVID-19. I wish they reported the numbers who need the ICU as I think that is much more important than those testing positive (who may not have severe symptoms).

Wow! Almost wondering if it would be worth it.

If you get on a ventilator, you're probably dead anyway

I hope not. They say 1/6 need hospitalization, and half of those need vents.

Definitely better than dying. But I think it's important for us to realize there

Yikes. Those lengthy hospitalizations are going to take a long-term toll.
