DR. Richard Bartlett ( Midland DR.) was on TV here in Dallas. Budesonide in a nebulizer for five days along with a antibiotic - Every One Of His Patients test negative - TWICE. Super safe and $200 for treatment.

Let's test. If positive do five day treatment and be back on the field.

College football this spring.

Check it out. Glad this came from Texas!!!!!
Peace

That's not news. It was reported at least 3 weeks ago that corticosteroids have had a positive effect on treatment of COVID-19 patients. Initially I heard of dexamethasone, but there are many different steroids that do pretty much the same. The key is to suppress the out of control immune response that can wreak havoc throughout the body. The antibiotic is unnecessary unless the patients have a superimposed bacterial infection, which does happen.

Thanks for more light. Did not see it on news so the last three weeks were dark.

This looks like a much better plan of attack than go home and see if it gets worse.

I post as this is cheap, takes five days and gets the virus early before it causes lasting issues.

Not left... Not right...… I want to see SMU football and the US get back to work...AND BE SAFE.

Also O blood types appear to have less lethal response than other blood types. Doesn't mean if you have O you can go out and lick a handrail and not get really sick.

I think everyone wants to solve the problem that is COVID-19. I am on board with this treatment plan as it makes sense in terms of mechanism of action. Hydroxychloroquine never made sense and is even more senseless now that corticosteroids have proven effective because the benefit of hydroxychloroquine in treating COVID-19 is its anti-inflammatory properties. There is no need to subject patients to the toxicity of hydroxychloroquine if corticosteroids accomplish the same thing. Corticosteroids are not without risks though as they suppress immune response and have a whole host of side effects, but mostly with chronic use so hopefully it doesn't become problematic. Ideally someone in the planet comes up with an antiviral that can specifically target COVID-19, that would truly be a game changer.

Media will keep pumping fear porn and suppressing encouraging news whether it be about declining death rates or breakthrough treatments until after the election.

November 4th, the media will suddenly switch gears.

Yes, you are correct about the news. I even think most people know most of the news is propaganda to control the population. So, if most people know - Let's go about our business. To get back on subject with those that know way more than me.

1- its is cheap treatment.
2- so , using it for 5 days should not initiate side effects.
3- getting this early greatly reduces the long term harmful effects of coronavirus.
4- 5 days is less than 14.
5- Texan talk - "We got this whooped"

I think we should be about treating and getting back to life.. NOW... And heck yes, If somebody finds something better - Wagons Ho!

There is some hope that inhaled steroids can have a beneficial effects for Covid patients. Many asthma patients take a combination of steroids daily and in at least one study they showed fewer severe Covid symptoms. But these steroids are not good for people who are diabetic or pre-diabetic as they spike blood glucose levels significantly in most people. So if they are used to treat Covid I suppose blood glucose levels should be closely monitored. BTW I am not a doctor, I am an asthma patient.

You might want to go to the Texas Medical Board's website and look up that physician's license record. Just saying...

With intent... I can find imperfection in everyone.

It's pretty hard to get a complaint in your record as a physician. Same with the Texas Bar. And same for CPA.

Well said, Well traveled!
11-3 virus as my DR. said. Oh, it is real but it's not what it is sold to be.

May we ALL have this plague pass by our homes. May God protect you. FYI, that means you taking care of yourself and doing what your mom told you. Wash, stay away of sick people and sty home if you mot feeling good.
