I haven't seen anything about the claims you're making that ventilators don't work. Is this only available in Chinese or is there any reporting/papers available in English?

[Edit] Are you referring to these news reports https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/08/doctors-say-ventilators-... ? If yes I think you're overstating what these news reports are saying by claiming "ventilators don't work" (in fact the reports are saying the data may be more complicated but ventilators are still needed).

Official Chinese numbers at the end of January reported ~5% of infected requiring respirator, less than 2.5% surviving it.

Do you have a source? Is 2.5% here of those needing a respirator or total infected?
