There are plenty of places to read up on respiratory physiology, et cetera.

And of course for the basics (though my training is from 1983) I suggest starting with the hypothesis that Guyton is a good place to start.

I also suggest learning about the ICU setting as a system.

I think it is a great idea to think about these things, but like I said, I think it might be a better contribution for many to instead work in the airplane factory. In this case, one with a bivouac where workers are protected from infection.

And maybe, just maybe, take some junior pilots (like medical students pre-MD) and engage them. Wait, that is likely already happeneing.
