I am guessing that we have gotten much better at treating the cases. And I am guessing that people of 60 years and above with other underlying conditions can only die once and that the states are doing a better job of seeing that assisted living places don't let Covid-19 in. o~~~ O

No question that docs and nurses have learned a lot since March and April. One key lesson is: don't use a ventilator except as a very very last resort. Apparently, COVID can do so much damage to the lungs that a ventilator is virtually a death sentence. They use proning instead and get much better results. That is why there isn't a ventilator shortage--because they aren't be used.
