Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

Remdesivir + dexamethasone is the widely accepted recommendation for hospitalized patients requiring oxygen or mechanical ventilation.

There is less evidence for plasma and a couple of the newer immunomodulators.

So what are the comparable viruses using the parameters I gave?

So now you are shooting for the part in your post I didn’t address? Moral victory ? Lol

Ok, so what is the widely accepted treatment? If you had an answer you could do more than throw out ad hominem responses.

I'm not a medical professional and didn't try to enter the argument. I'm (rightly) pointing out the moving goalposts you created. I guess you assume everyone is as dense as you are and assumed nobody would catch it.

Treatment.....strongest survive....too tough? Tough. It's called life.

No answer to the question either. Typical.

Very first thing I said there was the answer.

It was probably the answer you were looking for too: 0, zero, zilch, nil, nada, etc. You just didnt like the break down.

I try to get 30 minutes of sun multiple times a week. During these late fall days I have to walk at lunch. Lately I have found a little open area and then I sit there and bask. Today I was standing there soaking in the ray's.

I hear a horn honk so I check and there is some lady in a crossover waving me over on the side of the road.

I walk over, and she asked for directions to somewhere I actually knew, so i told her. Instead of thanking me, she says "you should be wearing a mask." And drives off.

She was not wearing a mask either. So again it's my responsibility to protect others after they directly ask me to come to them. That type of bs drives me crazy.

Lol. That’s funny.

That’s what I thought, nothing to contribute. Move along.

There is a news article in MSN News by the NYT that tells the story of how W.H.O. was China's puppet at a critical time in the beginning of this Pandemic. Looks like Trump was right in Calling out W.H.O. Wonder why it took them seven months to publish the stiory.

Fortunately we live in a free country on a (relatively) free board so I can call out your Bidenesque dementia-riddled posts while everyone else answers your question and you ignore them.

Weenie.

You’re free to look as stupid and petty as you want, you’re right.

I am always amazed someone will get themselves entangled into a discussion with 7%.

Some very healthy and fit people have suffered greatly from this virus. Your type of thinking is exactly why we can't get control of it

Have you ever taken a moment to consider how other viruses are "controlled"?

 

[kiddiedoc]

Actually, that number approximates zero. Children? Athletes?

We've had a ticker on ESPN for seven months making sure we are all aware of which ball-players have tested positive for a cold virus, and what's the body count? The story two months ago was the skyrocketing college case number...only to see that a study of like 70,000 cases from 50 universities resulted in three hospitalizations and no deaths.

 

[Rickyvol77]

You didn't say universal, nincompoop.

You claim to be in the health field and ask for universal miracle cures, which I'm not sure every illness on earth has.

He cleans out bed pans, not exactly a full understanding of actual medical issues

I can see how it looks like a mistype.

Us young and healthy are more at risk from the flu than from Covid as far as hospitalization and deaths go.

And where I am from anything less isnt worth the ink it's written on.

I had a curious thought this weekend when I stopped to get gas and a beverage:
knowing that the mortality rate of lung cancer is something like 50-95%, depending on stage at diagnosis, how the hell are cigarettes still being legally sold, if public health and saving lives is such a priority?

We could save 150,000 lives a year by doing something that would really only impact the tobacco industry, rather than every sector of business, entertainment, and education.

On a statistically significant level this has not been the case whatsoever.

It sucks, some unlucky people will get caught up in it, but that is life.

I think the same thing every time I go into a convenience market. Can you imagine the outcry from smokers and big tobacco? There would be a daily protest from every trailer park in this country

I knew I was going to get hammered when I made that post. Still, I don't care for the "strongest will survive" mentality as a response to Covid
