well since 87% of patients on vents die why bother worrying about running out i guess, just dont give them to anyone at risk and let 'em croak

when you run out of ventilators you doom that 13%

and 13% of a big number is still a big number

the most complete theory i've seen of this is that it reprograms bone marrow to produce more effective white blood cells but idk if it works anyone who isn't a baby

I have been discussing it with some scientists and they think it has more to do with the way it affects levels of cytokines, and specifically IL-6, though nobody really knows at this point tbh, though there are several theories. More study is required (and thankfully currently underway already), etc.

Folks HCQ is taken by people who have lupus and people have malaria. It's a well understood drug with a well understood side effect profile being given in reasonable dosage ranges.

There's been a couple of stories of "people got heart problems." This a critical side effect, as well as weird vision issues, that immediately stops use of the drug, but are quite rare. They were also pushing the dosages incredibly high in Brazil.

There's been some shoddy data that suggests that HCQ might have some benefit in pre-intubated patients. A clinical trial isn't actually a terrible idea, but its likely to turn up weak and inconclusive data. (i.e. It doesn't really do much or maybe has some benefit in pre intubated patients)

It's not gonna just murder people tia.

there is plenty of reason to go "lol" about HCQ. Especially when some shitheads in brazil are passing off a "study" where the people who wouldn't take the pills are the control group.

That said, its not because it isn't a real medicine.

lol are there any studies about what happens if you just shove it down the throat of people with extremely high lvls of chronic untreated health conditions w/poor access to services in the middle of a real bad case of soup miners lung

like giving it to people outpatient and just sending them on the way

Someone should re-make the Chernobyl scenes with Trump and his team instead of Khrushchev and the CCCP.

Science guy: "We need all the liquid nitrogen in the USSR to run the enormous heat exchanger"

Trump: "No you don't. That's a crazy amount of liquid nitrogen. 40k tons of liquid nitrogen? You need 7k, 8k tops. No one has ever heard of using that much liquid nitrogen"

*reactor melts into the ground water*

Trump: "No one could have seen this coming. We are doing a great job and nothing could have been done. The local ministers should have planned for this. The central government is just here to help, we can't be expected to do everything ourselves"
