Original Note:
A co-author of the study called this a mischaracterization. Ventilator-associated complications can occur, but patients are typically put on ventilators only when they would otherwise die. Therefore, it rarely makes sense to blame the ventilators for a death. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-study-ventilators-covid-deaths-775866708011
