Here is a higher quality version of this image. The photographer appears to be /u/karton101. They relay:

Patients are put on hypothermic protocol initially especially if they require high PEEP and FI02 needs from the ventilator... unfortunately it ends up blowing the alveoli in the lungs which are rendered useless by then...

The patient didn't recover

Edit: Updated comment due to helpful (albiet somewhat accusatory) comment by /u/AlexanderHamilton04.
