Reply to comment by banana4815162342 in TIL This palliative care paper determined that a stream of air from a bedside fan relieves dying patients of dyspnoea (breathlessness/ shortness of breath) as equally as supplemental O2. by No_Cauliflower_5489

I think that's a lot of it, from what I understand, most of our sensation of suffocation is a buildup of CO2, not a lack of oxygen, so it would make sense that that's what makes people feel short of breath.
