Everything I’ve read says the government will first look at your 2019 return to determine your eligibility. If you have not filed your 2019 return, then they will look at your 2018 tax return.

Ah ok. The bill changed so many times, I don't know which takes precedent. At first they said it would only go off 2018, then either 2018 first or 2019, then the last said even 2020 could be used as a last resort. As long as they are open to using any of the 3, I'm fine with it.

I am thinking plenty of ours will come in May, the original goal date. I don't know how these are being ordered, but I expect most getting it now either qualified with their 2018 return already or filed 2019 months ago, and have a direct deposit account on file with the irs. Others will get checks and the rest of us have to wait till 2019 income is considered to be qualified (for those that don't qualify via 2018 return).

I’m not sure if it’ll speed it up at all, but I went to the irs.gov website and you can check to see the status of yours. It said I didn’t have a direct deposit setup (even though they should’ve had it from taxes). I went ahead and resubmitted for direct deposit. May be worth looking into to make sure they have payment info as I’m not sure when checks will go out.

There's a toxic effect on lung tissue from too-high oxygen concentrations. There are also pressure-related effects - barotrauma - related to over distention of alveoli. There is a well-recognized best way to manage ARDS - acute respiratory distress syndrome - that is what we typically see with severe pneumonia or lung injury. it involves lower oxygen concentrations and low tidal volumes (breath size) to minimize both the toxic effects of highly concentrated oxygen and barotrauma from over distention. Alveoli are kept open by increasing levels of PEEP - basically the machine keeping some pressure against expiration to keep diseased alveoli from collapsing with each breath. Once they collapse, they are much more difficult to reopen and O2/CO2 exchange suffers.
With COVID, the CT scans and x-rays look just like ARDS, but the clinical syndrome seems different. High levels of oxygen seem to work better despite the possible toxic effect. High PEEP seems to be detrimental. Most are switching to ventilator modes to try to encourage the patient breathing on their own (negative pressure supported by one form or another of CPAP) as opposed to breathing for them (positive pressure). Again, everything on its head.

As for your relative, they were probably treated before ARDSnet "lung-protective" protocols became a thing in the late 90s/early 2000s. Barotrauma or toxic effects of high oxygen concentrations certainly could have caused injury.

Have y’all thought about using hyperbaric O2 chambers on these patients? Not sure if there are contraindications or not.
