Your TexAgs link is also infuriating. Marcus wrote...

Over and over again, the key to successful treatment seems to be early and fast treatment at first symptoms at home. Fatality rates really go up once you are in ICU. But even hospitals are questioning the good doctor's request for MAB + Dex. It's infuriating that the hospital administrators (or is it the insurers?) get to second guess the front-line doctor's knowledge and recommendations.
How in the world do you get a doctor who will recommend aggressive outpatient therapy at first symptoms? I asked my doc this and got the brush-off.
