Flawed logic?? Wrong. I didn't propose any theory and didn't make any statements about whether you should or shouldn't go on a ventilator and going on a ventilator does not cause you to die. Go back and reread my post. I simply stated the mortality rate of people with COVID-19 who went on a ventilator. If your condition degrades to the point of needing a ventilator, your chances of dying are good. Don't read too much into this and try to complicate it - it is really pretty simple.

50% chance of survival on a ventilator is better than 10% chance of survival for someone who needed it, and didn't get it.
