Just like with Trump, we hit the point where stupidity and narcissism make things worse: "CPAP machines are discouraged for use in COVID-19 patients as they can aerosolize the virus and increase transmission to doctors and other patients"
looks like tweet was pulled: Because somebody took a photo and handed it to a social media guy who knows about as much about medical equipment as I do (nothing) and he posted it with the caption. No need to 'rely' on twitter comments...they've got one of these unboxed and sitting on top of the heap - its a CPAP. Now Musk is gonna do what Musk is gonna do...the FDA just came out with an emergency directive allowing CPAPS (with caveats)...which is precisely why Musk no longer calls these "Ventilators", but rather "FDA Approved Ventilators"...which is Musklarian for "CPAPS that the FDA said could be used in an emergency, which will be helpful for sure, but in no way perform all the functions of an actual ventilator". So this is the medical equivalent of FSD. Musk has gone from promising to manufacture ventilators to buying surplus* CPAPS from a warehouse in China and donating them (distribution decisions made via twitter for full publicity of course)...yet still calling them 'ventilators'. * https://blog.easybreathe.com/s9-autoset-cpap-discontinued-get-supplies-last/ ...discontinued 4 years ago.
