Strong stroll for a mangy stray

infraboy posted:

It's really weird because Remdesivir supresses the immune system because it is used when the body's immune system is over-reacting like a cytokene storm which is common in severe covid cases.

It would probably make the virus a lot worse if your immune system was suppressed. So perhaps Trump is just pushing for whatever drugs/treatments he has seen on TV even if the doctors don't recommend it.

So they're either lying about how bad the symptoms are or the treatments or both. who knows, 4 years of basically destroyed credibility and everyone is too afraid to tell the truth.

Despite that the drug has shown some small positive effects in severely ill covid patients and is authorized for such treatment under an emergency authorization from the FDA.

Here's something funny though:

quote:

The fact that Mr. Trump is walking on his own, and that he delivered video statements in which he was able to complete sentences without gasping for breath, was seen as a positive sign by several experts.

Nevertheless, many sick Covid-19 patients appear to be doing well even when their lung function is poor, a condition doctors have nicknamed “happy hypoxia.”

“Of course, we like to see that he is feeling good, but it doesn’t put him in a category that’s essentially mild Covid,” Dr. Choo said.

Steroids may also give a false impression of the patient’s state. The drugs are also known to affect mood, causing euphoria or a general happiness. Steroids can also disrupt sleep, leading to insomnia, irritability or depression.

In some cases they may cause psychiatric effects, leading to feelings of grandiosity and mania, or even delirium and psychosis.

“The thing about steroids is they can have psychiatric side effects at almost any dose,” said Dr. J. Michael Bostwick, a psychiatrist.

More on happy hypoxia:

quote:

In hospitals around the world, doctors are shaking their heads in disbelief as they watch Covid-19 patients who should be comatose or "seizing" from hypoxia -- a lack of oxygen in the body's tissues -- check social media, chat with nurses and barely complain of discomfort while breathing.

Some have dubbed them "happy hypoxics," a terrible misnomer for what could be a long, slow recovery -- or worse.

The proper medical term is "silent hypoxia." It happens when people are unaware they are being deprived of oxygen and are therefore showing up to the hospital in much worse health than they realize.

Typically, these patients have experienced some Covid-19 symptoms for two to seven days before they show up at the hospital complaining of sudden chest tightness or an inability to breathe deeply, said Dr. Richard Levitan, who's been an emergency room physician for some 30 years.

While he practices at Littleton Regional Healthcare in New Hampshire, Levitan recently spent almost two weeks volunteering in the emergency room of a New York City hospital near the epicenter of the city's devastating outbreak.

There he watched patients come into the emergency room with blood oxygen levels as low as 50%, so low they should have been incoherent, even unconscious. Normal blood oxygen saturation is between 95% and 100%, and anything below 90% is considered abnormal.

In addition, Levitan said, scans of these patients' lungs showed signs of pneumonia so severe they should be in terrible pain as they gasp for their next breath.

"Their X-ray's looked awful, their oxygen was terrible, and yet they're completely awake, alert on a cell phone, and they all said is they've been somewhat sick for days," he said. "And then only recently did they notice either shortness of breath or fatigue or something else," Levitan added. "That's what is so fascinating about this disease and also so terrible."

It's terrible because by the time a person realizes they are having trouble taking a deep breath and reaches out for help, they are already dangerously sick.

Not saying that's definitely what's happening, let's just call it food for thought.

The way I understand it, Covid-19 causes inflamatory responses in the body, leading to the symptoms we know.

Suppressing the immune system would thus diminish Covid-19 symptoms (which can be devastating), but you are right, it wouldn't fight the virus itself.

Gonna give a shout out to the mods that allow people to be a little bit happy about a person who is responsible for incredible pain and misery, feeling some of it himself

I feel it's a very human response to feel glad when horrible things happen to horrible people, for loving once in their life, instead of innocents around them

In the morning we started getting better news, particularly the fact that he hadn’t required a respirator. That was probably the one detail we were praying about the most, and God was gracious.

quote:

But let’s not sugarcoat it: COVID-19 is a horrible thing to experience, and while we are sure Herman will beat it just like he beats everything, he really needs prayer right now.

Herman will be fine. We’re also confident of that.
