Yes - but is it true?
Why I asked - I was wondering if giving rescue breath to BOed person doesn't act contraproductivelly since I was taught to act calmly, just to speak to that person and blow on face. It was said that for ex. patting on face would not help and I thought that giving rescue breath would also could be felt like something what couldn't happen and that person would stay in BO state longer.
The larrynx is closed anyway so I don't know if you would be able to push the air through.
