“Tocilizumab, sold by the Swiss pharma giant under the trade name Actemra, can be prescribed to coronavirus patients who show serious lung damage and an elevated level of a protein called Interleukin 6, which could indicate inflammation or immunological diseases, the National Health Commission said in the latest version of its treatment guidelines published online.

Actemra can help contain inflammation related to Interleukin 6, according to Roche...

Biosimilars are cheaper versions of complex biotech drugs such as Actemra.”

“To be clear once again, Americans don’t need masks. The CDC says that healthy people in the US shouldn’t wear them because they won’t protect them from the novel coronavirus.
In fact, warns US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams, face masks might actually increase your risk of infection if they aren’t worn properly.
But medical workers who treat patients with novel coronavirus do need them”

Because hospitals buy special N95 masks at the local Wallyworld. How crazy can the CDC be? Ok, yeah, we know they’re down right insane. Hospitals have contracts and ins with companies. They do not run down to Wallyworld to purchase the stocked half dozen cheapo masks.
