Different bugs, different lethalities, MUCH better care.

Apparently China is using Tamiflu and fluoroquinolones to treat infections -- the Tamiflu as an antiviral, and the fluoroquinolones to hold off any opportunistic bacterial infections. They have also been using two antiretrovirals and claim some success with those.

I personally would suggest ANY other category of antibiotic, because fluoroquinolones are some nasty, damaging shit. They're using azithromycin instead on some patients. That at least doesn't damage heart valves. . . .
