I’ve never felt so bad
The virus drives me mad
Yes and yes. And it looks like the WHO either totally screwed the pooch on this one OR was engaged in promoting a China centric agenda.
First I am sorry to hear about your son. However you use of the words and belief though compelling is not supported. And I am an expert in the field.
If you are an expert in the field then exactly what drug would you use to fix someone with Covid 19?
What is your fix for someone with the complications of a cytokine storm?
Right now
hCq AZT for CoVId 19
Cytokines storm is also known as septic shock. I treat it every day in the ICU
Standard rtf
Volume resuscitation
Maintain Mean arterial pressure > 65
If 30 ml /kg fluid resuscitation is insufficient
Norepinephrine as pressors of choice. 2nd line vasopressin
Mechanical ventilation as needed. Normal tidal volume ventilation at 6 ml/kg
Analgesic based sedation
Broad spectrum abx or source control without delay.
Theee is a long set of recommendations revised every two years called the surviving sepsis campaign. You can look it up for further info and complete recommendations.
My son tripped the sepis protocol all the time. I am well aware of how it goes. I remember the times he was on life support because of it.
t wasn’t quite like the flu as some on here would have you believe.
If you know the cure for this coronavirus then why is there any concern at all?
Melancholia!
