Completely differnt game.

Not a medic, just a biochemist. Hard to see what harm could be done
using gliding oxygen to help someone with breathing difficulties. But
one might ask why such a person was not already in a hospital?
The main 'problem' is the small size of gliding oxygen cylinders;
now if one happens to have a big oxyacetylene welding kit in the garage
that's a different matter.

I think that in this case 'breathing apparatus' means a medical
ventilator, which assists the action of breathing as well as supplying
oxygenated air to the patient. The systems we use require the user to be
able to breathe without assistance.
