Unless you get medical care. This is why it's so damn important to flatten the curve. A unhinged outbreak will kill millions.

In Britain, they prefer to fill their lungs with tea.

54 people are known to have it in Congo. 5 are already dead. These countries are going to be boiling with rage after this ends and for good reason.

Why do you think ventilators are needed?

That's what the data shows i guess. It's sort of like you're asking me where I first heard something that's common knowledge. You can see and read about it in the news, a lot of people infected need those machines to help them breathe, if they are to have a fighting chance against the infection.

Why do you think is the reason they can't breathe?

I believe it's because the immune response to the infection causes swelling in the lungs. Swelling that then can even lead to scars i think
