These #COVID19 treatments appear to help patients:
1. Proning to improve hypoxia & prevent intubation
2. HCQ/Zpak/Zinc if used early otherwise useless
3. Remdesivir
4. IL6 inhibition (we use Tocilizumab & Sarilumab)
***This is our experience but more studies are needed

Almost half of #SARSCoV2 transmission occurs before symptoms are present... #COVID19

The problem is, the doctors don’t pay victims any attention or test them until it’s too late. You have to be a celeb or comgresscritter to get early care.
