A swollen respiratory system will only worsen using pressured air via ventilators...
Coronavirus: are ventilators doing more harm than good to Covid-19 patients? | South China Morning Post
Generally speaking, 40 to 50 per cent of patients with severe respiratory distress die while on ventilators, experts say. But 80 per cent or more of coronavirus patients placed on the machines in New York City have died, state and city officials say.
Higher-than-normal death rates also have been reported elsewhere in the US, said Dr Albert Rizzo, the American Lung Association’s chief medical officer.
The reason is not clear. It may have to do with what kind of shape the patients were in before they were infected. Or it could be related to how sick they had become by the time they were put on the machines, some experts said.
But some health professionals have wondered whether ventilators might actually make matters worse in certain patients, perhaps by igniting or worsening a harmful immune system reaction.
That’s speculation. But experts do say ventilators can be damaging to a patient over time, as high-pressure oxygen is forced into the tiny air sacs in a patient’s lungs.
“We know that mechanical ventilation is not benign,” said Dr Eddy Fan, an expert on respiratory treatment at Toronto General Hospital. “One of the most important findings in the last few decades is that medical ventilation can worsen lung injury – so we have to be careful how we use it.”

Gov't requires public disclosure of information on COVID-19 cases
The government now requires public disclosure of personal information of COVID-19 patients to further contain the spread of the virus.
"The IATF adopts the policy of mandatory public disclosure of personal information relating to positive COVID-19 cases to enhance the contact tracing efforts of the government," Nograles said.
"Para po matulungan ang contact-tracing efforts ng ating pamahalaan, mandatory o required na po ang paglalahad ng personal na impormasyon pagdating sa COVID-19 cases," he told the public.

bababa ang fatality rate natin pag nadetect mga asymptomatic
yun nga lang huwag tayo mashock sa dami ng positives na madedetect
