CPAP machines adapted for use in Covid19?

7. there are youtube vids describing this...

They combine an oxygen concentrator with either a cpap or bipap to provide a respirator that can be used if you still have the ability to breath independently.

The "secret" codes to reprogram the cpap for more appropriate pressures are available from the manufacturers websites.

This is not a replacement for a intubation tube with ventilator, but if you have a walking pneumonia and need some help when a hospital won't admit you, it "looks" like a very viable option.

It should not be a substitute for hospital care. It could save a life if you are issued a die at home order and don't have the most acute symptoms, but are still in danger without some treatment.

Note: I'm not a doctor. I'm not giving medical advice. But this is what I've seen built.
