DO NOT TAKE REMDESIVIR!!!!!
Posted on 10/27/21 at 5:18 pm to touchdownjeebus
Just seeing your post and prayers for your recovery. Be very careful allowing them to treat you with remdesivir. See the link to an artcile about it.
Remdesivir
I don't have time to read all 9 pages of this thread but if you haven't already I would demand that they treat you with ivermectin immediately. It works and works extremely well and it works fast. You should notice an improvement within 24-48 hours if given the right dose. I had covid last month and was fortunate enough to have some ivermectin on hand and it saved my butt from a lot of misery. In about 14 hours it kicked covid's arse. The only mistake in my treatment was I only had 5 days worth of it. I needed about 5 more days of it.
Surely you're on an antibiotic and zinc and vitamin D supplements as well as steroids by now that you're in the hospital. Best of luck my friend.

You were at least 8-10 days post symptoms. Surprised they gave it to you.

So frick Twitter and FB and YouTube for censoring shite and frick the government for playing hush hush and making people look crazy for asking simple questions.
True story
I haven't seen a post yet asking whether or not you had Covid the first time around....?

Tons of us could write tons of case series on it, it translational and clinical research is basically a waste of time to most regular, working docs and worth about as much, scientifically, as chatter in the lounge. But the chatter in the lounge definitely falls in favor of fewer severe cases, fewer hospitalizations, and fewer deaths in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated.
Are you seeing any reoccurrence of Covid in either group? It blows my mind that hospitals aren’t tracking this publicly.

I thought maybe but after this, I would say no.

This isn’t really in the purview of the hospital. It’s DHH/LDH/local public health departments. The hospitals tracking vaccinated/unvaccinated was actually not particularly politically motivated. We were really seeing a frickton of unvaccinated people and almost no vaccinated people in a horrible surge. 8/2021 was probably the worst month of COVID on record and probably my worst month in a hospital ever. It really was, as far as I can tell, sort of a “hey guys…I know you’re hearing this from the top down, but we really are seeing this…” effort, but it didn’t come across that way (from my understanding of the perception on this board).
But let’s say they did track this- it’s not really publishable outside of to the general community. Single-center observations aren’t “high on the list” of data that drives this and that. They’re about as useful as the experience of a handful of doctors (ie- “expert opinion”).
So, this is one of those “I didn’t get it until I did it” things. But doctors don’t follow rules or algorithms or recommendations, etc. the purpose of an MD/DO and license to practice medicine is the ability to fill in the grey areas. That’s essentially never been apparent until pretty much two years ago (to the layman, presumably). The utility of a random hospital publishing this data (and there are yellow-to-red flags on that in and of itself. This isn’t me saying it’s bad. This is me trying to convey the current landscape of medical research, its “purity” and its susceptibility to bias) is essentially no different or more convincing than a handful of guys from the same hospital talking about what they know/see (which is happening).

Question, what about Regeneron?
That’s the brand name of the monoclonal antibody.
It works well if you get it early enough.

Get well soon. I had it in August and it wasn’t as bad as flu for me. I am not vaxxed for the record.
Posted on 10/27/21 at 8:16 pm to touchdownjeebus
You should have started 5 days of Ivermectin as soon as you tested +
Posted on 10/27/21 at 8:30 pm to touchdownjeebus
Good grief...I'm in late, but God Almighty have you not been PAYING ATTENTION to the information on this Forum? Sad, and likely consequential that you failed to act in a timely manner. Tragic!
For those who are in the awareness state of tdj...do NOT hesitate when the 'flu' fever hits. Treat it like Covid and get the test IMMEDIATELY. If Positive, then go home and dive in with Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, Steriods, ZPac, Vit D, etc. If one postpones getting out ahead of the body's overwhelming inflammatory response (lungs) to this Virus...the pain and suffering cost will be high.
"Remdesivir"...damn!
Prayers for your recovery, Brother. You'll pay a price but be better for it.
And pass on the import of timely and wise action to those in your circle.

Personally, I would refuse the Remdesivir at all costs.
Posted on 10/27/21 at 8:56 pm to RCDfan1950
Yeah, I fricked up. That’s why I made the post. Clear of any politics and while a small sample, an active sample willing to share my success and failure so that we can have real world shite, not tainted slanted shite.

Steriods
Please don’t take steroids without a real indication (underlying lung disease that is exacerbated. Impaired O2 sat, etc).
It’s quite literally tied to a worse outcome in COVID when they’re given inappropriately.

Flip flopping, lies, and data manipulation at the hands of the CDC, NIH, and state department of health and hospitals will make people see them as “less trustworthy“ (as in not at all). Throw in Dr. Catherine O’Neal stating that natural immunity is worthless and my faith in the medical community is not warranted.
ETA - Outside of a handful on here.

Geez I hope you do well and I mean that sincerely but the worst thing one can do is go to the hospital & start remdesivir.
The best thing are the Covid recommended vitamins, ivermectin & HCQ.
Praying all goes well for you.

That was sort touched on in my “a license means docs can/should do what they want” bit. There are definitely plenty of good things that come out from major colleges and other more “central” organizations, but holy shite if they didn’t burn the bit of leeway I gave them when I was a little too busy to delve into primary source data to find the basis of their recommendations when they make them.

Dr. Catherine O’Neal
I’m still very sad to see a very bright and very good doctor (if I had need for an ID doc for myself, she’d be in the top 5 I’d ask for if given the opportunity to choose) become little more than a paid actor with a credential and a spot on TV. Early on, I watched every state and National conference on COVID. My clinic was all but shut down for nearly a month. But I watched them give some pretty firm recommendations based on way less evidence available than I typically review to choose a fricking tube of toothpaste (which is actually probably a personal fault that I should seek professional help for). There’s very few organizations I’ll place a whole lot of trust in left. I’m going to pinch pennies like a miser and get the frick out of medicine at the first available moment with the extraordinary shite show it has become in the last two years.
