Everyone talking about #makeventilators is missing the point.
Yes, we're going to run out. No, it won't be pretty. But we don't have labor capacity to care for that many more than we can ventilate.
We need O2 concentrators so that 2/3 of hospital cases can switch to home care.

Chinese reports + American interviews of front line doctors collected by project open air https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1D1_C_Bng3zqw2IDZmo3jYZDZDLNYm0tq … Interviewed doctors seem inconsistent about how much care those on oxygen need, but consistent that there's two scenarios: oxygen and intubation.

That’s not the relevant consideration for whether *home* oxygen is useful for a large # of patients. In fact the interviews you linked are not consistent with that story.

Lots of evidence. Take a look at the Chinese report on over 1000 patients, their symptoms and needed care.
