One of the biggest medical interventions for COVID was intubation. Having experienced unilateral vocal cord paralysis after being intubated for surgery and days after due to complications of the procedure - you really want to avoid it if possible. It took surgery and 18 months for me to speak normally again.
I'll take feeling crummy for a few days with low risk of actual harm to avoid that happening again.
I was intubated for short periods after some major surgeries and I don't wish it on anyone, thankfully I didn't have any issues after the fact like you did.
