Patient usually has mild symptoms but tend to undergo ARDS and cardiovascular collapse quickly. Two of the four like this I’ve seen personally were late 20’s/early 30’s and otherwise healthy. Sorry I don’t have more details than that, once autopsies are done on more victims there should be a better understanding of the pathology. Haha welp I've been good about only going out once a week to stock up on stuff but now I'm just never going out again

hepatizon posted:Any thoughts on the speculation re: disruption of heme groups causing a lot of the signature findings? So of those that I’ve seen die, many if not most die from apparent cardiovascular complications, not hypoxia. I suppose our pulse ox could be falsely reading high if it’s detecting damaged hemoglobin but I don’t see cyanosis or any other hallmarks of hypoxia. Cytokine storm is still the most likely culprit as the patients who get interleukin inhibitors seem to be getting better faster. The only problem is it’s expensive and administration predictably is now clamping down on it’s use.

brugroffil posted:WSJ editorial board hyping the right wing media "miracle cures" hydroxychloroquine (HC) and chloroquine Here's the article: The Food and Drug Administration on Sunday green-lighted two malaria medicines that have shown some promise treating the novel coronavirus, and the emergency approvals couldn’t come soon enough. Expanding their use could bring quicker relief to patients and hospitals while allowing scientists to better assess their efficacy. The malaria drugs hydroxychloroquine (HC) and chloroquine have been around for more than five decades, so their safety is well documented. New evidence suggests that they could also help fight the novel coronavirus, as op-eds by Dr. Jeff Colyer on these pages have reported. Both chloroquine and HC in vitro block the replication of RNA viruses like the novel coronavirus. Hydroxychloroquine nowadays is often prescribed for the autoimmune conditions lupus and rheumatoid arthritis that result from the body’s immune system attacking its own cells. Scientists have also documented an overreactive immune response in severely ill coronavirus patients. Notably, a study in France of 80 coronavirus patients given HC and azithromycin, an antibiotic for upper respiratory infections, documented “a clinical improvement in all but one 86 year-old patient who died, and one 74 year-old patient still in intensive care unit.” Doctors have also reported anecdotal evidence of the malaria drugs’ efficacy. More study is needed, and a clinical trial of the two drugs involving 1,100 patients started last week in New York. But the FDA’s emergency authorization will let more doctors prescribe the drug outside of clinical trials, and hospitals will be required to maintain data on drug dispensation and patient outcomes. This will allow a larger review than possible in a controlled clinical trial. Production of the drugs will need to increase so patients with autoimmune conditions can maintain their treatments, and the emergency approval covers only drugs supplied by the National Strategic Stockpile. The Department of Health and Human Services reported Sunday that Novartis has donated 30 million doses of HC, and Bayer has contributed one million doses of chloroquine to the federal government, which can distribute the drugs to areas with the highest need. Some are attacking President Trump for giving patients “false hope” by encouraging the emergency drug approvals. They quibble that the French study lacked a control group, but are flogging a smaller Chinese study that found no statistical benefit from HC. That study’s control group received other antiviral drugs. Effective drug treatments would reduce the strain on hospitals and in the long term will be more important and less costly than government quarantines in defeating the pandemic.

I'm sitting here jealous that even working from home they have time to do things. Apparently they get their thrills from going to another box to sit all day for work. I know right I was full-time WFH before all this started so maybe I'm just used to it, but it's kind of a relief to be free of social obligations for a while. I'm spending shitloads of quality time with my SO, getting loads of projects done, and maybe eventually I'll have time to play video games again. It'd suck if this was month eight or something, but it's like week three for most people come the gently caress on.

If I'm also working out regularly it drops to the mid 50s. So that doesn't seem to far off. Given what's going on with high BP being a risk factor I probably should not drink this month because my BP is high and that'll lower it. Plus generally just not depressing my immune system. gently caress, I'm gonna face the apocalypse sober. That's' bullshit.

I'm used to having my evenings and weekends scheduled up and sitting here with large blocks of open time is depressing.
