Should CPAP use be curtailed during this pandemic?

Just read another thread that raises a very disturbing prospect: that a CPAP machine aerosolizes virus when used by infected people.

So, someone using the device for sleep apnea, who may unknowingly be Covid-19 positive, but asymptomatic, could inadvertantly be spreading the virus very effectively to housemates.

I wonder what role this device may be playing in the spread of coronavirus??
