Do you perform these same mental gymnastics with your clinical trials? If so, I hope my doc does not prescribe anything your company makes to me.Livin the dream

My sisters Father-in-law passed away Thursday night. He was 70 years old, morbidly obese with Type II diabetes, and COPD.
On Wednesday he had a soar throat that progressed to fever and cough on Thursday. He took a rapid flu and Covid test, and both were negative. No known contact with positive individual. He went into a coughing fit and cardiac arrest and died on his way to the ER.
ER doc that pronounced him dead said probable Covid on the chart. They haven’t seen the death certificate yet.Livin the dream

Obesity, diabetes, and COPD... :(
These frontline doctors have seen enough cases by now that they can smell Covid from down the hall. Sore throat and fever usually doesn't accompany a heart attack or stroke... I bet you he died of a pulmonary embolism. This is what gets the big people at home and doesn't show up on the Covid death toll.
Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) was common in COVID-19 cases, often in obese patients and in those not sick enough to require critical care, an observational study showed.
PE turned up in 22% of 328 patients who got pulmonary CT angiography for PCR test-positive COVID-19 at the Henry Ford Health System's hospitals in Detroit from March 16 to April 18.
Notably, 51% of the PE cases were diagnosed in the emergency department and 72% overall were diagnosed in patients who did not require intensive care unit (ICU) level care, reported Neo Poyiadji, MD, of the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, and colleagues in Radiology.

You asking wufan for a pissing match? What's yours?
You hold Fauci in pretty high regard as does Biden and many others. Not saying you or they shouldn't, but didn't Fauci go on 60 Minutes in March and say masking wasn't that effective, people in general didn't need to do it, and it had other problems. Yet many Fauci supporters on the left hold Trump responsible back into January when he's getting this type of advice from an expert in March.
PS: I don't have any medical or science background. From what I've seen so far, maybe you should be showing yours before asking wufan .

Isn't it crazy that this insidious, alien virus took the standard protocol for treating "dangerously" low oxygen saturation and turned it into an avenue for speeding death? The whole world was shitting themselves over a lack of ventilators when what would have saved thousands of lives would have been a lack of them. Just a simple oxygen canister, a mask, and a lawn chair (in the prone position), w/ some 'roids, Vit. D, zinc, and aspirin thrown in for good measure.
Remember when Italy was flooded and they had to send patients outside "to their doom" with only oxygen and chairs while the "better prospects" got the vents inside? I wonder how many of those folk survived that didn't get the "luxury" of a vent.

Just taking massive oxygen therapy alone destroys mechanical ventilation results in the context of overall mortality with Covid, so it's no surprise that HBO2 fared well. It may be superfluous though. Could it be therapeutic over just straight oxygen in the most dire circumstances? Perhaps. I remember a few doctors talking about this back in the beginning too.

Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

Everyone brace yourselves. What I am about to post is not a joke. This is seriously what King Newsom here in Commiefornia has put out regarding Christmas/Thanksgiving. He can f**k right off if he thinks I’m following this BS. I’ve had about enough.
