In the last 3–5 days, anecdotal evidence has come out of NYC, Italy, Spain, etc. about COVID-19 and characteristics of patients who get seriously ill.
It’s not only piling up but now leading to a general field-level consensus backed up by a few previously little-known studies that we’ve had it all wrong the whole time. Well, a few had some things eerily correct (cough Trump cough), especially with Hydroxychloroquine with Azithromicin, but we’ll get to that in a minute.
There is no ‘pneumonia’ nor ARDS. At least not the ARDS with established treatment protocols and procedures we’re familiar with. Ventilators are not only the wrong solution, but high pressure intubation can actually wind up causing more damage than without, not to mention complications from tracheal scarring and ulcers given the duration of intubation often required…
They may still have a use in the immediate future for patients too far to bring back with this newfound knowledge, but moving forward a new treatment protocol needs to be established so we stop treating patients for the wrong disease.
The past 48 hours or so have seen a huge revelation: COVID-19 causes prolonged and progressive hypoxia (starving your body of oxygen) by binding to the heme groups in hemoglobin in your red blood cells. People are simply desaturating (losing o2 in their blood), and that’s what eventually leads to organ failures that kill them, not any form of ARDS or pneumonia. All the damage to the lungs you see in CT scans are from the release of oxidative iron from the hemes, this overwhelms the
Patients returning for re-hospitalization days or weeks after recovery suffering from apparent delayed post-hypoxic leukoencephalopathy strengthen the notion COVID-19 patients are suffering from hypoxia despite no signs of respiratory ‘tire out’ or fatigue.Here’s the breakdown of the whole

No it’s really not
I would have to see the original journal articles before I believe this. If true, iron would quickly accumulate in the live, causing very specific symptoms.
100%.
I dont think you know anything about this. Just because you have _dr in your screen name doesn’t mean you have any expertise whatsoever. Wonder what your agenda is.
I dont think something that acts like cyanide would have such a range of different effects on different people.

I couldn’t get any zinc but I got some Ginko Biloba.
It makes sense to me. For the longest I’ve been saying that whatever this disease is, it kills by causing slow, long term hypoxia.
“I couldn’t get any zinc but I got some Ginko Biloba.”
While pure Zinc or Zinc lozenges are currently impossible to obtain, if you look into the “nutraceutical” field you will find numerous formulas that contain plenty of zinc. I’ve been stocking up on a “Prostate Care” formula that’s mostly zinc.
Hypobaric oxygen treatment would allow the blood plasma to carry oxygen. Might save some while the hydroC and zync or Erythromycin kicked in.
I’ve been repeating that leftism is neo-feudalism for some time, and I’m not alone (nor would I claim others followed me on this).
Too much other material for comment at this hour.
explain why. please
Maybe someone knowledgeable here can explain how the blood disease theory ties into observations that people with type O blood are more resistant to the disease.
Forget I asked that. you took 3 minutes to read the report. you have no idea what it is.
This changes everything. It’s no wonder that doctors have been reporting negative results using ventilators. It’s also no wonder that an anti-malaria drug is working. CV19 and malaria share some pathways.
“The reason chloroquine works for malaria is the same reason it works for COVID-19.”
True. This matches my previous studies. People with extreme Covid19 have difficulty breathing, like getting placed on top of Mt. Everest from an airplane. The problem is that ventilators do not work in extreme Covid19. The solution is that chloroguine and Zpaks do work for extreme Covid19 patients.
Mr. Trump is hopefully asking his inferiors to read Free Republic.
It’s like the old Rocky Horror call back “It better be better than last week”.
I agree with the medical side of this article. Once he got into the hemoglobin compound ionization, I was already thinking that the virus is replicating a carbon monoxide situation. But don’t mind me I was only a Lab Tech for the AF and then became a nurse.
I think they are
Careful, though. If a ventilator is needed it might be an indication that the victim is already at an advanced stage, not likely to respond to treatment of any kind.
It would be very easy to begin a hypothesis of this nature by assuming that chloroquine is an effective treatment, looking at the nature of chloroquine and its anti-malarial effect, then further assuming that similar effects mean similar causes. Even I, a complete layman in medical terms, had the same impression when being exposed to the plethora of anecdotal information regarding chlorquine. My first reaction was to look up the drug and its agency of action against malaria.
The hypothesis might be valid or not, but we'll never know until some research has been done. But for now we can get it right in practice and then worry about getting it right in theory later.
