What is healing 'a health state'?

Perks: Second Wind - "When you have healed other Survivors for the equivalent of one Health State, Second Wind activates."

Does this mean healing another survivor from 0 to 100%? Could the injured survivor heal theirselves 99% and have the Second Wind user just finish off the last 1%?

DeathBound: "When a Survivor heals another Survivor for one Health State at least 32 metres away from the Killer, the Survivor performing the Healing action will scream,...."

Does this mean if 2 people are healing an injured survivor, both of them would screen when apart? Does this just count for the people literally there healing when it finished? Could a survivor heal another to 99%, then they selfcare/use a medkit for the last 1% to avoid this? Does the killer need to be 32 meters away for the entire heal, or just the very last bit? I can imagine injured survivors getting to 99% and stopping the heal until the killer is close to counter this. Like 99% a gate.

    You have to heal someone for 16 charges a.k.a a full health state. If you heal someone for only 12 charges, you will still need to heal another person for at least 4 more charges so the perk activates

    You have to heal 16 charges for Second Wind. Deathbound and Aftercare just require you to do the final charge.

    The difference in wording is the word "equivalent".

    I gotcha, thank you both. Thank you, couple follow up questions.

    If you have increased speed of healing, that doesn't change the charges, correct?

    If 2 survivors are injured and one has Solidarity has the other has Second Wind, the second Wind user would still need to heal someone else for half a state, since the Solidarity user is considered to have done half of their own healing, right?

    Would Deathbound then be counted by a Survivor just finishing their heal when the Killer is close by? Could they heal theirselves the last %1?
