    It is an interesting read but my limited medical knowledge prevents me from having an opinion as to its being correct or not. A lot more people seem to be focused on covid19 than any other disease or ailment in medical history. It will only take someone having a viable theory and all focus will shift to that theory and will bring it to fruition quickly. Bob

    SF, thank you. Some of this I can follow but overall too deep for me. I know nothing about Hydroxychloroquine. Less than two years ago GP put me on Azithromicin. I could only tolerate it for three days and had terrible nausea and diarrhea. Called GP and he told me to stop taking it. I suppose the benefits could out weigh the risk. Very interesting.

    I find it interesting that hospitals are only doing emergency surgery and asking for blood donations because they are low. Red Cross is on TV all day wanting blood.

    If this information is correct the virus isn't just causing lung tissue inflammation it is also reducing the hemoglobin's ability to transport oxygen, a large double wammy on the body's oxygen distribution system .   Not only that but also on the removal of the bad things that are blown off during the respiratory process, namely CO2.   That the people die of organ failure isn't new information, that is what happens when the body is starved for oxygen, regardless of cause.   Anytime a body is sick and organs are affected there are changes in levels and distribution of hormones, minerals, electrolytes, etc.   That's why the patients has to be constantly monitored, things are always changing.   

    Early intervention that can slow down damage to the red blood cells would lead to fewer people needing mechanical ventilation and a higher rate of recovery.  However lack of oxygen will kill you now and must be addressed so ventilators would be needed for those patients and long term effects dealt with if the patient survives.   There is so much more but hopefully new early treatment regimes  can be identified and make a difference.

    Early treatments seem to not be a choice for many of those getting sick.  We are being told to stay home and only seek emergency medical when you find yourself suffocating! :s
