It's not like we're going around incubating healthy people -- you have to be pretty sick to get put on a ventilator. Even if the treatment turns out to be a net negative, most of these patients didn't have very good odds in the first place, so it's pretty unlikely it would affect the death rates "drastically."

Sources? I would disagree, reports show that by not intubating, outcomes are dramatically improved. [1][2]

I'm taking issue with the use of the word "dramatically" not the claim that it could improve patient outcomes.
