That was absolutely clear from the beginning. It is just physics and chemistry. If you have problem not with the breathing process but with gas exchange in lungs there are no any way artificial breathing AKA intubation could somehow help. It absolutely does not matter how you fill and discharge lungs with air, artificially or in natural way if something prevent normal gas exchange. Intubation was never used for pneumonia. To resolve gas exchange problem you need to change oxygen amount for one breath, by rising ambient pressure or adding oxygen to breathing air, not force breathing artificially. You need an intubation only when a person somehow lost an ability to physically breath - for some problem with nerve signals to lung muscules or damage of breathing muscules, something like that. If a person could perfectly breath himself, using intubation is not only useless, but also extremely harmful due to so many reasons.
That idiocy / intended harm was so obvious and on the surface, that I still don't understand why so many people just eat that ventilator bullshit without any questions. Seems that nobody cared about learning physics and chemistry in school or think that physics and chemistry does not apply for medicine.
At least in Russia, typical treatment for severe pneumonia was pressure chamber ( increasing pressure you increase number of oxygen molecules in unit of volume ) or just adding oxygen to the breathing air.
Of course it is possible that some old and weak person could lose any strength in lung muscles trying to breath intensively, but you have to just don't give a fuck to his condition for a long time and intentionally leave him suffocating instead of placing him in pressure chamber or feedng with additional oxygen to make him breathe normally. So, you have to intentionally make lung muscles weak to get a reason for intubation in case of pneumonia. And it will not be pneumonia, it will be lang muscles failure. Obviously.
