As long as we can avoid flooding hospitals with covid19 cases medical care should be better than before. We should see quicker interventions, better medication approaches, understanding the early signs of decline to avoid crashing and demise. We should be able to isolate our elderly better. New York taught us the covid19 pitfalls, big time..... now we should de a LOT better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Although the Oxford study of Dexamethasone has shown some promising effect against the virus, as of yet, there is no peer review or preprint paper supporting those findings. This finding however is new. As this steroidal drug is common, and has long been used, thinking that drug does not require CDC emergency approval for use to fight against the virus. However am not certain about this. All of this suggest to me we will be hearing more about Dexamethasone in short order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputnik Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Don’t mean to ruffle any feathers but despite looking for a silver lining, WE are not living by the lessons WE should have learned. Sounds like a few posting here are physicians and certainly medical knowledge and treatment has advanced. Also, we were able to weather the first wave (or first part of a first wave) of a pandemic with less social upheaval than I ever expected. But, all that said, we need leadership that doesn’t contradict science and common sense. I serve as command staff in our local fire department, as a first responder and EMT, and I look at a crowd like that in the same light as a gathering of drunk drivers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
