By the way, what Trump should be doing, is that he should take 24 mg of ivermectin (Stromectol) today and 24mg more in 72 hours. Unlike HCQ, ivermectin has just been shown in a randomized controlled trial (although a small one, and open label) to prevent infection; 58.4% of people taking placebo and taking care of infected relatives caught the virus; those who took ivermectin in the same situation, only 7.4%. No HCQ BS. There is much better now. Ivermectin, zinc, vit D, vit C, quercetin, famotidine and melatonin, all taken together, are much more likely to avoid infection or dampen severity of initial infection than HCQ (which is not that hard to do since HCQ simply doesn't work). Attention: do NOT take ivermectin intended for veterinary medicine (dogs, cats, horses). Very serious reactions might occur. Only take ivermectin intended for humans, and prescribed by a doctor. Don't self-medicate with ivermectin; bad, bad idea. But if you get badly exposed to a confirmed positive case, it might be a very good idea. On empty stomach, either 1 hour before eating or 2 hours after eating.
Breaking news: TRUMP HAS TESTED POSITIVE! REPORTED NOW LIVE ON CNN. I wish the president a safe and complete recovery. This is concerning due to his age and high BMI. Trump needs to immediately take: 24mg of Ivermectin (repeat in 3 days). Nasal Interferon-alpha/beta 12 mg of melatonin now and nightly 40mg of famotidine now and twice daily 3g of Vitamin C now and 500mg twice a day 500mg of quercetin now and twice a day 75 to 100 mg of zinc picolinate now and daily 15,000 units of Vitamin D now, subsequent dose depends on his vit D level High quality 4 g of Omega-3 fish oil now and daily (Vascepa or Lovaza) 325mg of aspirin now and daily Melania tested positive as well. She looks very healthy. God bless you FLOTUS Frequent pulse ox, professional grade; hospitalization if pulse ox drops below 84 God bless you, Mr. President. Be well! The First Lady has also tested positive.
Hopefully. I hope they are using the right protocol. There are different protocols, some from very prestigious places like Duke and Yale, that do NOT include everything that is needed. I think that the MATH+ protocol is BY FAR the best one so I hope this is the one they'll be following. I mentioned in post #54 what they should be doing. I hope that's what they are doing. I mean, Trump trusts that full blown idiot "Dr." Scott Atlas, a quack and a moron, so I hope that imbecile is not "advising" his treating physicians.
Oops, a typo - I said pulse ox below 84, no, below 94. 84 would be a sign that all hell is breaking lose and would require ICU. People who are confirmed cases, treated at home, need to monitor their own pulse ox, and seek hospitalization if it drops below 94. Check frequently, warm up extremities before checking, use index or middle finger, remove nail polish. Observe for 30 to 60 seconds to get the most accurate reading. If it drops below 94, even if you're feeling relatively fine and not short of breath, call ahead a hospital ER, say you're coming in (so that they get ready for you) and go, immediately. If a family member drives you there, open all windows in the car, wear a mask, and have your driver wear an N95 mask if possible.
Interesting contrast: On Fox News they are talking about it over pictures of the president wearing his black mask On CNN they are talking about it over videos of the president and Hope Hicks walking around maskless So Fox News wants to convey the idea that Trump wasn't reckless CNN wants to convey the idea that he was reckless
Well, if the ACA is struck down, taking hydrochloriquine without a prescription in the past twelve months is a valid reason for the health insurance company to deny coverage.
People are not mentioning the risk that Joe Biden has also caught it. He was for 90 minutes indoors, some 12 ft from the president, who was shouting and talking non-stop. Aerosol in these circumstances can reach beyond 6ft.
Hey righties, still think that covid is made up hysteria by the Dems and media to win the election? Maybe Trump is another number our doctors and hospitals are supposedly fudging to make Trump look bad? What say you?
Yes. Many people have tested positive around him and he didn’t go into quarantine. Now all of a sudden he starts quarantine late at night?
Rather meaningless to ascribed blame to someone becoming infected seven months into the outbreak. Before it's over 60% of us, or so, will contract the virus. Those in "essential" occupations that require near unlimited interactions with others are sure to be in the cohort that become infected by live viral transmission. The reminder will get it intentionally through vaccine. One doesn't cast aspersions at health care workers that contract the virus after months of proximity and interaction with others. It's a numbers game, sooner or later it's going to happen in that group that has to interact with people. Seven months of being virus free in a profession that demands close contact with dozens of people on a daily basis suggests that viral transmission was taken seriously. To suggest otherwise just isn't rational.
It's what one does when positively diagnosed. Some jobs one doesn't just significantly encumber on a maybe.
People at the highest level act irresponsibly. And you ask for hope and prayers. I would say, they should get their heads checked.
well her name is Hope. The dem Gov of my state tested positive last week. I wonder if he gave it to some dem at a campaign event and they spread it to Hope at the debate and so on and so on....
No, the 2 percent is the potential Death from it. The other stuff is higher. Neurological effects in about 50% of the infected to start https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20200622-the-long-term-effects-of-covid-19-infection
