Thanks - I admit, I did not know the NIH had published any guidance at all. However, reading through the NIH guidelines, it is true that if someone is judged not to be high-risk, that doctors are being advised to send the patients home with no early treatment offered.
That to me doesn’t seem ethical, especially after all these months. Especially since a substantial number of the people dying weren’t “high-risk”.
My experience with a visit to the ER after testing positive for CV was in the word my kids like to use, MEH. They didn’t care, even though they told me I had the glass lung pneumonia. I had to involve an advocate to force them to give me a broad spectrum antibiotic, but they took my 02 levels and said go home. They did give me the breathing tool that measures how much air you can draw, to exercise my lungs. This was in late December 2020.
