A Brooklyn woman desperately ill with the coronavirus is breathing easy this Mothers Day thanks to a novel treatment her medical-student son helped provide.
Josephine Bruzzese, who is 48 and otherwise healthy, woke up on March 22 with a fever, body aches, dry cough and trouble breathing. She lost the ability to smell or taste. Her family rushed her to NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn in Sunset Park.
She was so short of breath she couldnt speak said her 23-year-old son, James.
The hospital diagnosed the mom of four with pneumonia, but with no coronavirus tests available, it sent her home as a suspected COVID-19 case.
Some symptoms improved when Bruzzese, who works in banking, was given the antibiotic azithromycin and the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine but she still couldnt breathe.
We were very worried because she couldnt stand up without almost passing out from shortness of breath, her son said. Her respiratory symptoms were very severe.
James, who lives with his parents and three siblings in Bath Beach, is in his second year at the CUNY School of Medicine in a special program that combines a bachelors and medical degrees.

i cant answer that but i can tell you be sure to take k2 with it or make sure you get it through your food
Especially if taken on an empty stomach. I learned that the hard way.
I was taking the supplements with my BP and cholesterol meds at bedtime, between 10 PM and 11:15 PM. Probably the exact wrong time to take them.
I spread mine out throughout the day so it doesnt bombard my liver.
I take the things that should go together...like D and K2
A and Zinc

I promise I will have a look at it with an open mind. Truly.
NAC?
shorthand. you are a dr, right? i dont know the technical name...but it’s known as NAC
I posted to you a few weeks ago about my experience (the conjunctivis/illness). The day that I woke up & couldn't breathe (or stay conscious for that matter), I took 5000 mg of Vit C (actually Emergen-C which also contains Zinc & Alka selzer ingredients. The next day the breathlessness was gone; continued taking 3-4000 mg for a few days after. Not sure that it means anything...but putting it out there.
thanks...I wondered about the Alka seltzer part her treatment.
no, not a doctor.....lol
I believe you will, when your schedule slows down from warpspeed. The cardiovascular component is real and a growing problem. I am wondering how many corona viruses attach at ACE2 receptors. Sars did. Polio does not. But then polio is not a corona virus.
N-Acetyl Cysteine. It’s a glutathione precursor.

Studies have shown that MORINGA also has the ability to boost glutathione activity in our body. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant which has been shown to protect our body from free radical damage.

I have one thing I have learned and one thing I think will come out of this
Allopathic physicians like me suck at nutrition and vitamins. We got like an hour lecture in four years of medical school. I have spent some time learning about it.
I think coming out of this we will have a much different understanding of viral treatment and i foresee the golden age of virology.

I would dearly love to be post corvid!
