Boris Johnson has left hospital after spending a week in hospital with Covid-19 and will go to Chequers to continue his recovery.

The prime minister was being treated at St Thomas’ hospital in south London and had spent time in the hospital’s intensive care unit after his situation deteriorated.

I hope his doctors share with the Donald’s doctors what they did and didn’t do during his journey.

Well, just remember: If it was hydroxychloroquine, zpack, and zinc.... it's another anecdotal report. >:^(

I have a sneaking suspicion Donald knows what therapeutic cocktails Boris received. Trump knows too well the need for privacy. He would never share that info without explicit consent from Boris.

I second that.

Have been praying every day for BoJo.

Trump sent a private jet with 2-3 top US researchers/MD’s to offer what sounded like an experimental “ Hail Mary’’ treatment, when BoJo was basically dying and his cabinet praying for him

No further word on what happened

However since then the NHS has finally opened up at least 3 hospitals to a large trial of hydroxy combo therapy

That’s great news about the NHS trial. I am concerned they were trying to fight this dread virus with oxygen therapy and aceteminophen, unless there’s something amazing in that combo which they haven’t shared with the world. On the other hand, Boris did come back from death’s door? Or maybe it was the power of prayer that did it.

I suspect with Boris that his body desperately needed rest and a chance to recover. I doubt he would have been in the hospital at all if when he first got the disease he deputised his powers and took it easy. Instead, he kept trying to run the government through a crisis while he had the virus. He’s too young(ish) and healthy(ish) to have gotten it this bad, except that he had the big underlying condition of “being under a huge amount of stress”—and as they say, stress kills. I’m sure lots of prayers were a positive too.

I saw some very disturbing comments from leftists on Yahoo News about Boris. Some wishing him to die, others saying he deserved it or making various nasty remarks about him, and one suggesting he was the wrong world leader to get the virus (i.e. the person was wishing it on our president). It amazes me that many on the left are using this crisis to proclaim loudly to the world how trashy and immoral they are and how they put politics above absolutely everything else.

Very typical communist leftists....it’s all they got. They’re nothing but trash and losers...always have been throughout history. They are a deadly disease onto themselves.

I don't think that happened. What Trump said was:

‘He’s been a really good friend…we have made tremendous progress on theraputics…and I’ve asked two of the leading companies, these are brilliant companies – ebola, AIDS, others – they’ve come with the solutions and just have done incredible jobs.’ ‘And I’ve asked them to contact London immediately, they have offices in London, these are major companies, but more than major, more than size, they’re genius,’ Trump continued, saying that he spoke to four companies.

We politely declined that help AFAIK

I think a large part of the problem with the left is that they have dropped traditional religious beliefs and instead treat their political beliefs like their religion. Traditional morality is gone and even flipped on its head, but they still have a crusader’s faith-based fervor and a inquisitor’s oppression and intolerance of other viewpoints. I feel sorry for some on the left because I’ve know some who are well-meaning and looking for a purpose for their lives but have been badly led astray, but you’d think any half-way decent human being would know it’s wrong to wish death on other people over political differences (and that goes for the much smaller numbers on our side I’ve seen pulling that nonsense too).

Nice summary. All that energy has to go somewhere...

For jazz aficionados, Darius Brubeck in London is slowly recovering from Wuhan, being weaned off the ventilator day by day; for a while it didn’t look good, but he will likely recover as well.

That would be quite the Easter resurrection miracle, as Dave Brubeck of "Take Five" fame died in 2012!

Darius is one of Dave’s sons; he taught jazz in KwaZulu-Natal until maybe ten years ago, then was in Holland for a while, then retired in London.

Dave named him after Darius Milhaud, studied with him in LA after WWII; Dave spent the war in Paris, was part of Patton’s army but the Red Cross kept him behind to play the piano.

I stopped reading comments on Yahoo. They are all mostly whacked out leftists.

RE: Well, just remember: If it was hydroxychloroquine, zpack, and zinc.... it’s another anecdotal report. >:^(

FOLKS, just remember.... most successful cases of HCQ, including the ones published by Dr. Didier Raoult in France and Dr. Vladimir Zelenko’s over 800 cases in upstate New York show that it is most effective during the early stages of the disease, that is, as soon as symptoms are observed. If you use it at that stage, it only takes 5 to 6 days to reverse the disease. This relieves immensely the burden on hospitals and healthcare workers!

You should not wait, like UK’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who had to go to ICU, before you start the Hydroxychloroquine protocol. By that stage of the disease, the success rate is not well established.
