Covid Just Killed The Last Person Living In An Iron Lung

The last person so far. We might get to see polio rise again because of the antivaxers

I think they would use a ventilator now, no?

No, only iron lungs

Why was someone still living in an iron lung for that long? Was there really no way to build this person a portable assisted breathing contraption so he/she could have a life? Seems unnecessarily cruel in this day and age.

He was able to move about without it via “frog breathing,” but needed the iron lung to sleep.

Wow, I thought that he died of natural causes. Now I know that he was killed by the stupidity of some entitled, harm-enabling people out there.

Covid is natural, and to be honest so is stupidity.

It is a shame that he was exposed by someone who wasn’t careful enough.

Bear attacks are also natural, but you don’t say “natural causes” when Erica gets her face eaten off by a bear.

I would.

I was in the ER 2 weeks ago and all the staff there think masks are chin guards. When you call them out on it they get angry and put the mask halfway on for about 2 minutes, then resumed their normal stupidity and think they are paper chin guards again.
