Lung can’t heal themselves, there is no proof that it is not causing damage.
It is not my fault you’re google is only able to find conspiracy theory websites. But it’s ok bud not everyone gets it.

the last part of your lung before the oxygen gets on the hemoglobin and goes around to the body is called the alveoli.
Once those alveoli are damaged by COPD or other diseases. That’s it. Those alveoli Never, ever recover. Full stop. Period. Anyone saying different is lying.
That doesn’t mean you can’t improve the rest of your lung function that’s left by exercise, medicines etc. People with COPD do it every day.
Doesn’t mean if you get the coronavirus and end up on a vent you won’t live a normal life after the crisis. But, once the lungs are damaged. That’s it. No repair.
