A new paper offers fresh evidence ventilators killed Covid patients, suggesting ventilator-acquired pneumonia - not Covid itself - caused many deaths, while Sars-Cov-2 was relatively mild

Aggressive use of ventilators may have killed some Covid patients, a new paper from Northwestern University researchers suggests.

Covid itself has a “relatively low mortality rate" compared to other respiratory illnesses, the researchers found after examining about 600 patients with severe pneumonia. Yet Covid patients remained intubated longer than other patients and developed secondary bacterial infections more often.

Those extra infections caused many deaths in Covid patients, the researchers wrote. More patients may have died from the bacterial infections than Covid itself.

The new finding is particularly troubling because media outlets and hospitals both pressed ventilator use for Covid patients in 2020, frequently claiming ventilator shortages were likely.

Reporters focused on ventilators as a way to criticize the Trump Administration’s pandemic response. A Politico headline from March 27, 2020 summed up the media’s attitude:

Trump: I don’t believe you really need that many ventilators

Meanwhile, hospitals encouraged early ventilator use in part to protect their staffs from Covid.

“Doctors often put preemptively put patients on ventilators,” the Wall Street Journal reported in December 2020. Compared to patients on less intrusive forms of breathing support, ventilated patients exhale - or “aerosolize” - far fewer Covid viral particles.

But ventilation is dangerous for patients, especially when it goes on for long periods. Tracheostomy tubes are a highway to bacterial lung infections, or “ventilator-acquired pneumonia,” which can be very difficult to treat, even with powerful antibiotics.

“The importance of VAP [ventilator-acquired pneumonia] as a driver of mortality in patients with COVID-19 has been underestimated,” the researchers wrote.

The paper was published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation in late April and examined 585 patients with severe pneumonia treated at Northwestern’s hospital, including 190 Covid patients.

In fact, within a year, never-used ventilators could not even be given away and were being thrown out by the truckload.

By then, though, it was too late for Covid patients admitted - and ventilated - in 2020.

Writes Out Here On the Perimeter

It is incredible the speed at which the - once revered - medical profession was effortlessly dismantled. Charlie Munger - Buffet's right hand man - once said:

"Show me the incentive and I will show you the outcome."

The incentives were legion and the outcome was all but preordained and the collective-elite-dark-triad that inflicted this upon us knew from the start that that would be the case. Because the love of money is the root of all evil. Hospitals became killing fields because they were being paid to be that. All of the following are the reasons hospitals are preventing families from visiting their loved ones:

Shut down all of the hospitals except for their COVID wing disallowing most surgeries and other general care.

Result: hospitals are starved for the revenue needed just to keep their doors open.

______________

Hospitals were getting paid $12,000 for every COVID patient that died, but $39,000 if they put them on a ventilator first.

Result: hospitals were deliberately killing patients by venting them which caused a cytokine storm in their lungs, drowning them in mucus.

______________

Hospitals also got bonuses of $160,000 if they reached a certain number of COVID deaths.

Result: everyone was labeled as a COVID patient whether they tested positive or not. This caused COVID case numbers to skyrocket, purposefully helping to drive the fake pandemic.

______________

Hospitals are paid 20% extra when they prescribe Remdesivir to COVID patients which shuts down their internal organs. This was known from the study phase where it killed 50% of patients who took it.

Result: hospitals are knowingly killing patients with Remdesivir.

Alex - don't forget about the other kill shot - Remdesivir - if the ventilators didn't do the job.
