I love twitter, but I’m worried about the speed of misguided (but well-intentioned) theories for COVID.

Every series describes patients that fit well within the definition of ARDS, and we should be treating them with standards of care for this unless new data proves otherwise.

Saying this “Isn’t ARDS” isn’t only incorrect (review the Berlin definition), but may lead people to think they don’t need to treat patients with therapies proven to reduce mortality.
