@oliverbeige It's non zero, for sure. But covid is particularly expensive because costs of repsiratory disease are absolute highest ICU cost. Single ventilator requires something 10-12 people. Don't get me started on ECMO https://t.co/GqXWZNCZvX

@RealCandaceO and then, if your head does not hurt too much, you should read about the cost of an ICU stay when mechanical ventilation is required. Mind that this is In Germany where costs are much lower than in the US. https://t.co/zJTbw5Dv2Z

daily costs of ventilated patients circa 150% of non-ventilated costs. https://t.co/t7YGo88SbS "Daily non-ventilated costs were €999 (95%CI €924 - €1074), and ventilated costs were €1590 (95%CI €1524 - €1657), a 59% increase. "
