Random thoughts from the posts:
I would have assumed the experimental medicines with promise would be used today in C19-positive patients who had all the factors for high mortality prior to letting them circle the drain. By the time their body starts to shut down, any treatment is probably going to fail on a weakened victim. Sort of like giving someone oral penicillin to treat severe sepsis; too little too late.
Lethal myocarditis is sometimes seen in otherwise healthy hearts that are infected with H1N1 flu -
sorry! I saw it on a Reality TV show, Dr. G, Medical Examiner. Myocarditis is what killed a 42 year old male who dropped dead on a sidewalk in Florida in 2010, not his infected lungs. The heart looked nasty, like it was a Chia Pet.
Trivia - During the 1918-1919 flu pandemic, President Wilson caught H1N1 while at the Paris peace talks in 1919 when Wilson was 63 years old. He became gravely ill.
"Wilson's administration worked furiously to keep Wilson's diagnosis a secret. Grayson told reporters that Wilson had a cold and just needed some rest, blaming the president's illness on the rainy weather in Paris. Meanwhile, Wilson’s condition worsened. And he began acting strange. “Generally predictable in his actions, Wilson began blurting unexpected orders,” A. Scott Berg wrote in his
biography of Wilson. “Twice he created a scene over pieces of furniture that had suddenly disappeared,” even though the furniture had not moved.
Wilson also thought he was surrounded by spies." "
Is this why people thought the President had C19?
