And this is why I usually ignore your b******t attention seeking posts, you have a victim mentality and is proved by the fact that you think I dont agree with the guy because
you posted it. I didn't "diss" the video, I discussed and critiqued what he said and made that quite clear.
I never said anything about German, Italian and English doctors being rubbish, in fact what they are saying in the article is much of what Ive said, ie the use of non invasive methods being used which I stated is standard practice.
You are indeed cherry picking what you want to say to me (and from the reports you quote) and ive noticed your very specific posts to anything I say over the last 10 or so days since I decided to ignore you as you always end up bickering with me and then the mods have to get involved. This p***es them off Im sure and I know it p***es a lot of others on the thread off. And it's why I decided to ignore you.
I read the article you quoted in the mail as Im always willing to look at evidence. I have and as stated, it's cherry picked and your problem is you believe anything you read at face value, as a healthcare worker Im trained not to, but to look at all the evidence and frankly there's a lot of it that this guy states as fact which is true (Ive already covered the damage done to lungs from ventilators which is a risk in any disease) Ive also stated that CPAP / HiFlow are already commonly used and standard practice in ICUs but these only work to a point.
Additionally, if you bothered to check any of his supporters you will find that while they do indeed have concerns about the damage ventilation can do, as everyone does, you'll find that the article again cherry picks how it represents their views.
For example the only "supporter" that's actual an ICU consultant (including the american doctor that works in the Emergency Department) actually states some very telling words in an article in The Independent on the 9th April.

But particularly interesting is the following and is not supportive as the Daily Mail puts it, of the American Drs stance at all, it's a simple statement of fact.
"All we can do ventilating these patients is ‘buying time’ with minimal additional damage: the lowest possible PEEP [Positive End Expiratory Pressure] and gentle ventilation".
Another Dr from the UK here also says in relation to the high death rate of ventilated patients
"But the expert consensus would be, basically everybody who goes onto a ventilator does so because their lungs are doing so badly at oxygenation they are about to die. People would argue — without proof — that, of all the people who need a ventilator, if you didn’t put them on one, mortality would be close to 100 per cent. So from there you can’t argue that 60 to 80 per cent [as has been reported in coronavirus patients] is worse."
And with that, Im going back to ignoring your promotional posts for Ford and your deliberate singling out of my posts which Ive successfully done for the last ten days.
Oh I know you'll think your clever hitting back and will call me a hypocrite saying that Im accusing you of victim mentality at the same time as I state you are deliberately targetting me, or you'll quote that and say "see".
It really doesn't matter, I really don't care about your opinions as you are so willing to believe you can be the only one thats right and you never accept anyone elses view could be correct, you've proven that several times and anyone thats been on this thread any length of time knows it.
With that Im signing off (from you) but also hitting report on my own message to flag it to the moderators so they can ensure things do, in fact, keep on track.
