That is why President Trump survived the virus, he was treated IMMEDIATELY the second he started having any sort of breathing issue he got the antibody treatment..remdensivir I dont see any improvement with that drug even Trump said so, he said the regeneron is what saved him not the remdensivir..problem is, if you dont mention that you want to be treated with this antibody to your doctor, they wont do it..they just shove a damn ventilator into your mouth and if you live great, if not, oh well..that is how they are doing things here and around the country
Your friend should ask his doctor about proning..and if it really goes south he could ask for a Rotoprone bed even if insurance wont pay for it...if they have the staff that can handle it.
If the Doctor doesn’t believe in proning your friend should ask “Will it hurt me?” given his particular medical situation.... if not....consider doing it on his own
