My niece had swine flu that went into double pneumonia. She was running a high fever, given tylenol by the hospital and sent home. She started vomiting was taken back to the hospital and was given an iv and sent home. Then she started turning blue. She was intubated and in ICU for 2 weeks. No one thought she would live. Was told if she had been given tamiflu immediately it would not have gotten severe. Thankfully she is on her way to recovery now!
I have a student in the hospital now in the exact same shape. It is very, VERY touch and go according to the mother. I haven’t gotten an update, but as of last night, she was asking for the priest to come.
