It’s complicated- choosing the correct treatment for a patient depends on a lot of variables- an important one being what stage of the illness they’re in. No one size fits all with this virus.

“There is no unnamed official”
You could be correct. The media is not beyond making stuff up out of whole cloth. On the other hand, there could be a Swamp Creature that they have in their hip pocket feeding them a counter-narrative.
Either way, it’s just more of the same never-ending MSM anti-Trump BS. 24/7/365.

They are giving President Trump at Walter Reed Remdesivir and Rengeneron experimental drugs. The two experimental drugs have never been combined. President Trump is the first test case of these two combined.

Normally they give Remdesivir and Rengeneron experimental drugs when a patient is dying. Often between 7 to 10 days it triggers an Auto immune response. If that happens, then they put the patient on the Ventelators that have a 97.2 percent death rate.

Are you on an oxygen machine? 70 is not good at all.

The timing of this seems too much of a coincidence.

I strongly suspect the Deep State is trying to remove POTUS before the election.

Probably the same person that said Trump had “difficulty breathing” which was later denied by his doctor.

“Afebrile for coming up on 48 hours is an excellent sign.”

A poster yesterday stated that if there was still no fever through tomorrow, it would strongly indicate that the treatment was going to be successful.

The President himself in his video statement today, indicated that they would be monitoring for the next couple of days, implying the same kind of decisive period in his struggle with the virus.

Chris Wallace brought up effete and entitled....
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
Never heard any of your info. Thanks.

I did know that Mike Wallace was “incurably” prone to major depression. In an interview he said “I will, apparently, have to take these drugs every day for the rest of my life. If I want to function.”
Antidepressants.

96-98% O2 saturation is totally normal... even for someone who’s not sick. Even 95% is fine. Hell, one time when I was just junked up with bronchitis I was at like 88%. And I was in my 30s at the time.

President Trump is going to be just fine. Joe Biden ain’t gonna know what hit him when the Prez is back on the campaign trail in like a week.

Yes, the doctor addressed this as two DIFFERENT therapies that work differently so they can both be used.

It’s like a hot dog. You can use mustard or ketchup or BOTH together.

It’s like your body can walk and chew gum at the same time. You don’t have to spit the gum out in order to move.

Did this happen shortly after Chris was born. If so, I get it.

First treatment while still at WH:

“Sean Conley, the President’s personal physician, wrote in a memo that he treated Trump with an eight-gram dose of Regeneron’s experimental antibody cocktail. Trump has also received zinc, vitamin D, aspirin, melatonin and a heartburn drug thought to help fight COVID-19”

^^^^^^^^

So, if true, this would be the first dose of gileads fauci/gatess drug, Remdesivir?

I heard the same thing about a 7-10 day window/peak of infection/viral attack.

Remdesivir is a 5 dose protocol (taken over 5 days).

dose 1- Fri., 02 Oct., rapid onset of symptoms
dose 2- Sat., 03 Oct., no fever (one of three consecutive days- marker)
dose 3- Sun., 04 Oct., .........(two of three consecutive days- marker)
dose 4- Mon., 05 Oct., .........(three of three consecutive days- marker) MILESTONE (no fever for 3 consecutive days)
dose 5- Tue., 06 Oct., MILESTONE (advanced therapy dosage complete)

day 6- Wed., 07 Oct.,

day 7- Thu., 08 Oct., possible peak viral attack window DANGER ZONE (viral attack window increases)
day 8- Fri., 09 Oct., possible peak viral attack window
day 9- Sat., 10 Oct., possible peak viral attack window
day 10- Sun., 11 Oct., possible peak viral attack window MILESTONE (viral attack window diminishes)

One day at a time patriots!

Mark Meadows shared with the Judge Janine audience that the President’s oxygen level had started to drop rapidly Friday (and Trump himself said in tonight’s twitvid that he didn’t feel too well yesterday) so he had a harder time than originally detailed. The treatments seem to be helping. I wonder how long after each the Regeneron and Remdesivir administrations one would see complications/side effects.

Looks like they are trying another unproven drug (Remdesivir). According to wikipedia, “the drug probably has no important effect on the need for mechanical ventilation and may have little or no effect on the length of hospital stay”. Not sure why they continue to put him on experimental therapies with little proven value. Maybe trying to be pro-active or just to cover all their bases?

I’m glad to hear from a “Doctor”, but what did Chris Wallace have to say?...<<

Chris says there is a huge discrepancy of 2 minute and 30 seconds of the exact time of the original dosage of Remdesivir ...and if that's true....Impeachment is the only option..

tune in to Faux News for more deep analysis from Cris Wallace

He reports and you better believe it!

Where did you see “greatly improve[d]?” Who said it?

the president's health status were undercut by an official who described the president's condition as "concerning."

Find out who said that and fire them.

Yes, from a disease progression timeline the real danger time seems to be 5-10 days after symptoms show up. It doesn’t look like Remdesivir actually helps in avoiding that danger, but I guess they want to try all potential options.
