Considering the importance that has been placed on this treatment I would have thought that there would have been some early feedback by now - positive, negative or neutral.

Ok, they are and they aren’t
Cuomo banned it but for uses not FDA approved. That means that Drs can no longer prescribe it to people in the early stages, because it’s not FDA approved. Remember the Dr who said he treated 350 people and zero went to the hospital? That was NY.
It IS FDA approved for use if someone is experiencing lung failure, so Drs can prescribe it at that point.
Cuomo wants to fill ICU beds and then “save lives.” That’s what he thinks will make him more attractive as a future potential POTUS pick.
Given that the governor wants to be president, I'm wondering what we can trust coming out of New York?
Thats what im wondering. WTF???
Agree. Tuesday (I believe) is when official announcement of off label use of it. Most data said around 5 days of the drug combo needed. I would hope by Sunday more data is coming out regarding the drug getting people off ventilators, or out of ICU, and even lower death rates.
Compare to ICUs and patient remaining on ventilators and stay in ICU not being treated with HydroC. Still not a controlled study, but a larger data set (with positive results) gets pretty close to saying there is a cure.
Definitive results will take time, but we should know something by now. IOW, is the treatment killing people off like the media wants us to think? Or, are they doing better than patients that aren't receiving treatment?
I'd think if it were killing people we'd know, a family member or hospital worker would leak info. I take no news (other than people coming forward about their own positive experience) that the opposite is happening but, overall, we'll just have to wait and see.
Guys! That one NY hospital said there were so many dead they were storing the dying patients in refrigerated trucks! /s
They really said that though. They also said they only had five ventilators and no CPAP machines.
Guiliani tweeted in regard to this to expect news about the testing tomorrow and that it looked good. Take from that what you want just passing along what I saw. Im super hopeful though.
One account says it takes less than a day for people to feel a little better, then takes 6+ days for it to go away
I expect early next week they start to report results
