Seriously sick coronavirus patients in New York states largest hospital system are being given massive doses of vitamin C based on promising reports that its helped people in hard-hit China, The Post has learned.
Dr. Andrew G. Weber, a pulmonologist and critical-care specialist affiliated with two Northwell Health facilities on Long Island, said his intensive-care patients with the coronavirus immediately receive 1,500 milligrams of intravenous vitamin C.
Identical amounts of the powerful antioxidant are then re-administered three or four times a day, he said.

What the hell happened to hydrocloriquine and Z packs
The article states it’s in addition to the other drugs.
Well, the vitamin C may not do anything to slow the virus down, but the diarrhea might. ;)
The vitamin C is administered in addition to such medicines as the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, the antibiotic azithromycin, various biologics and blood thinners, Weber said”

Thats good to hear. The Vitamin C cant hurt and may help at the margins.
I’m eating 2-3 chewable vitamin C tabs a day in addition to drinking a glass of tonic water.
Many brands of vitamin C are “currently unavailable” on Amazon. It does boost the immune system, along with vitamin D and zinc.
Nothing wrong with that.
It is far more useful for your health than 900 rolls of TP.
Mom and Linus Pauling were right.
Intravenous vitamin C and oral liposomal vitamin C do not cause the digestive upset regular ascorbic acid does in high doses.
There has been tons of info on intravenous Vit C saving sepsis patents by Dr. Marik. Its about time.
This is intravenous a Vit C. Google. Dr.Marik has been saving patients for a couple of years. Id want it.
People are too darned stubborn to do it. Dr Marik has been saving sepsis patients that normally die with Vit C and something else,, dont remember what but the info is available on internet.
I cured RA with large doses of Vit C.
Those anecdotal cures are not approved by the government. Are you allowed to even ask that question? Stay there - the authorities are on their way.
Finally, someone that knows something about Vit C.
Peppers, tomatoes, broccoli, potatoes, cauliflower, etc. all good sources (besides the obvious fruits)
Your excellent post made me happy. It works on so many levels.
I bought a stash of high potency Vitamin C last week, when I first heard about this treatment.
Fauci will say it is anecdotal and he wants to study it for the next two years.
Wait, wait....has this been approved by Dr Farci and the FDA, CDC, DHS and KMA?
