I don’t know all the answers to your questions, but I’ll try to sum it up the best I can. I too had asked about zinc and hcq. No it was not even tried. Why? I’m wondering too. As far as I know: vit C, antibiotics, prednisone and morphine. Morphine? I guess it was to chill my friend out for a couple days until requested to be taken off of it. Friend is early 50s. Old? Well, I wouldn’t say so. In my eyes the biggest factor would be their weight. Overweight. However, friends spouse and friends are all pretty big and they didn’t get rona. Friend has never smoked, no drugs, rarely drinks. Never had any health issues with lungs, or much else really. Friend is overweight but is very active, works full time...a real busy body. I would say leads what we would generally consider a healthy lifestyle, except the food thing. One scary thought is my friend is in a major city in the US and went to a very reputable hospital. They don’t seem to have a clue about what’s going on. And no, it’s not NY or CA, not coastal. I’m not trying to frighten anyone. Personally I quit wearing mask and try to live as near normal as possible. Just wanted to share what I know about the one and only person I know that’s actually been diagnosed with rona.
I know 1 person that has the virus. If I didn’t, I would question it. The thing they’re not telling the public is that the Dr.s really don’t know what to do. My friend is still dealing with it months later. In and out of the hospital. They pump my friend full of steroids to get the inflammation down, go home, rest. Inflammation returns, lungs full of crap so there’s dangerous low levels of oxygen. Rinse repeat. What I don’t get is how my friend is now tested as negative for the virus, was around a lot of people and no one else caught it.
Document document document everything. I hope all the people that live up there and own businesses sue the shit out of the mayor and governor, all the representatives. You pay taxes, your pursuit of happiness has been Infringed.. Oh yeah, the judges are all fucked. My bad.
We started going to a local butcher. All meat brought in is local. It’s fresher, taste better, probably healthier and we’re supporting our community. Just had hamburgers for dinner and the ground beef is called bacon burger, it’s mixed in....soooo good.
I understand that he refuses based on his beliefs...and I admire him for that. Honestly though, if it was me, I would have made the cake and made it taste awful and decorated it in someway that would of been a crafty fuck you to the people but not in a way that would have been obvious.
I’m O, hubby is A, he’s been sick as a dog. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s got it. Worst cold he’s had in years, but he’s slowly getting better. Get tested? Where? Easier said than done. I’ve looked into it. They want you to stay home until you need to be admitted to the hospital, then they’ll test. Stupid.
Everyone in CHOP just got support from Gates. They should all head over there.
