Wow....that’s scary.
Thanks for the recap.
Only treatment is anti-inflammatory med??? For what, comfort?
I wonder which island the leaders escaped to?
There's not but a couple of anti-viral drugs out there. And I think I read that the flu drugs won't help against this.
So they are just treating symptoms. Anti-inflammatories probably help with breathing.
He said the island name but I didn't write it down.
I went back and looked at SARS treatment. SARS was also a Coronavirus...
“Once in isolation, SARS patients usually receive: Antibiotics to combat pneumonia-causing bacteria; Antiviral medications; Steroids; Oxygen and breathing support; Chest therapy 1; Beyond that, the CDC recommends anyone with SARS receive the same treatment as that for “any serious community-acquired atypical pneumonia.
“Because SARS is viral, there is no cure. Although, there are medications available like ribavirin or interferon to help manage the symptoms of SARS.
To deal with the cytokine storm that is likely killing people.
