There are a few technical errors in this article. For example sleep apnea is more often caused by the tongue blocking the throat rather than the soft pallet doing so (although it can). It also says that tracheotomy is a treatment that was worse than the disease, I would disagree. If the sleep apnea is causing strokes for an example... better to have the hole in the throat.
