Hey pedes, one of my best friends Dad caught the Chyna virus. He did real well for the first week or so, now he's on a ventilator and the doctors are saying he might only have a couple of days left. His body is shutting down :( Please send some prayers his way. All of you are in my prayers as well, God bless.

Get him on the hydroxy. Have they tried the malaria/lupus shit? If not, tell them to give it!
The one thing we knew about HCQ early on was that it sucks for late stage (ventilator) use, it tends to be far more effective when taken early.
This is when remdisivir is needed, it's one of the few drugs that shows hope at this point in disease progression, including a new study showing that a specific high dose steroid regimen (can't for the life of me remember which one right now) shows results too.
Heavenly Father, in your grace & mercy, please heal this man and return him to his family. Strengthen him & all who care for him with your presence, draw them to your promise, and fill them with your peace. Amen.
Prayers to your friend's dad and all of those plagued with Wu-Flu. Wishing them all the best
Hi. I’ve been a lurker since the beginning, Nimble navigators kept me. I saw your post and I had to join because I caught part of Tucker tonight. Remdesivir was mentioned for those really sick, it was said to have a 60% rate. Trump I believe mentioned at the start along with Hydroxycl as something to look into. We hear more on the latter But today I heard Remdesvir. Healing Prayers to you and family. I hope this info is helpful.
Assuming he can get the drug, the company that makes it can't make it in high enough quantities right now (and literally all of their production is slated for the US anyway).
Oh dang. So sorry pede. Sending lots of prayers.
I tried to find more info on remdisvir. Just that is is FDA approved, trials were at Stanford. I found this article on the inflammation factor of Covid.possible meds to slow it that they are looking at. As we have a right to try, Maybe this will help. I wish I could find more, https://www.healthline.com/health-news/new-drug-may-help-keep-covid-19-patients-off-ventilators#Anti-inflammatory-drug-may-slow-cytokine-storm
Thank you all so much!
I'm so very sorry to hear it. May I ask in what state your best friend's dad is in ?
It is creepy how little we know about this virus !
He's in CA
I'll keep them in my thoughts. Good luck
Prayers 🙏. I recovered from the WuFlu but my best friend lost her Mother and her Father to it, within the same week. I pray he recovers and heals by the grace of God.
