A thread: Spoke with a dear friend today whose father-in-law passed from the Wuhan Coronavirus last week. His wife, her MIL, had contracted it also. X-rays showed her left lung full. She was coughing, struggling w oxygen. Three days after drug cocktail she left the hospital.
On Wednesday they administered the hydroxychloroquine cocktail and by Friday x-rays showed her left lung nearly clear. She came home yesterday, still under strict quarantine as docs said she will shed the virus for additional two weeks.
I don’t know what every experience has been with this treatment, but I know my friend’s family is beyond grateful that they don’t have to bury BOTH parents. Her life was saved by this drug cocktail.
I’ll tell you this — my friend and her family are glad Trump pushed this. Without him doing so, my friend wonders if it would have been as widely known by the non-medical public? It’s saving lives. /thread
