Oxygen was not used in the hospitals in many cases because the machines didn't/don't filter the outflow and they were afraid of all the Covid germs flying around.

Just when I think I can't hear anything more loony...
At the very outset of the whole thing, when doctors, including many Christian doctors I know, who of all people ought to have the most courage in the face of danger (remember the Christian doc who nearly died from Ebola a few years ago?), when doctors acted like they were special heroes for continuing to work in the face of covid, when hospitals brandished the "heroes work here" slogans, I was very puzzled.
Was this not what doctors are called to do on a daily basis already? To set aside personal comforts and safety for the welfare of the sick who has come to them for care and aid? To accept the risk of contagion, while using common sense prevention of course, but recognizing the divine gift of skill and knowledge that has been given to them and which they must therefore use when called upon, for the healing or comforting of their fellow man?
The level of fear and the way it drove extreme self-protection measures at the expense of patient well being was stunning.

Wait, what?!
