It's sad because I am not a nurse and I knew ventilators were not a good approach. I saw my grandmother on one. I will never forget it. She begged us to get her off it. I remember singing Silent night to calm her down while holding her hair. It was Christmas time.
My heart aches for people who had to see their loved ones suffer like that.

Was she a covid patient then? ... the remdesivir and all of it?
Did she come through?

Thank you, @wht . Just now watching it.
It's shocking that some of the hospital workers have no empathy. It's like they are the non-humans that live among us. Beings that lack a soul.
Horrible that innocent people got their lungs blown up by workers that didn't know how to operate the ventilators.
This video is a real eye opener.

And it was primarily these deaths (epicenter of the epicenter) and the NY nursing homes who were mixing covid w/ non covid clients that set the initial alarm bells going off for the entire country. This was the place storing bodies in a reefer trailer out back due to lack of space and all that. Absolutely planned.

And she was the only one of just a few w/ any real experience and gumption to ask questions. Was a perfect storm.
