I'm asking this AFTER googling the two words.
The news has mentioned a potential shortage of hospital equipment, Are they referring to the machine that I call "life support" ? Or is there another type of treatment beyond needing to have oxygen?
Here is the underlying reason I ask. For those of us who have End of Life instructions that say "do not hook me up" or "no heroic measures" -- would that include in hospital treatment for Coronavirus?
If yes, I am wondering if that is part of the reason the death toll at the Seattle area convalescent hospital was so high -- possibly many had ' DNR' on file?
