this is suggestive.
the doc is saying that severe patients with COV are not acting like they have an RTI.
they look like they have altitude sickness.
they simply cannot get enough oxygen.
there is a theory on this. https://youtu.be/k9GYTc53r2o ">https://youtu.be/k9GYTc53r...

this is a proposed model on the action of COV associated structural proteins on heme rings
it knocks out the iron ion and takes its place, rendering it unable to transport o2/co2
this would look just like being at 20,000 feet and trying to breathe. https://chemrxiv.org/articles/COVID-19_Disease_ORF8_and_Surface_Glycoprotein_Inhibit_Heme_Metabolism_by_Binding_to_Porphyrin/11938173">https://chemrxiv.org/articles/...

you can give a patient all the O2 you want and ventilate them, but if their blood cannot carry that O2 or clear CO2, it doesn& #39;t matter.
assuming this is correct, these patients need working red cells, not oxygen.
worth considering.
