Prayer dukke but this situation pisses me off and I'm not talking about you are you're wife, I'm talking about the Governor and the medial establishment who are so adverse to early treatment. Upon first positive test your wife (if she met a certain risk profile) should have been prescribed antivirals and given monoclonals (vaxxed or not). Once you're in the hospital you are typically not only dealing with COVID but COVID caused pneumonia which only complicates the situation. That's why early treatment is so important. I know it's not 100% but it significantly increases your chances of not having to go to the hospital. Ignoring early treatment is a total failure by our medial establishment.
This x INFINITY.
Everyone who is positive and wants it should be offered antibodies, steroids, AND Remdesevir in OUTPATIENT setting. Draw whatever daily labs are required. By the time many of these people come to the emergency room it is too late.
Medical science still has NO CLUE why Covid causes such a fatal disease course in some patients and not others. And they are playing the slots at the casino at this point by not proactively treating everyone who wants it.
I believe that we will look back on this time with deep shame and regret for the millions of Americans that our healthcare system could have saved, but didn’t.
We are supposed to be the best in the world, we can and should do better.

No, not Remdesivir. Remdesivir has a 20% chance renal failure which leads to pulmonary edema which gets you in the hospital with COVID pneumonia.
When my 79 year old dad first tested positive, I immediately found a monoclonal antibody site and when I filled out the patient information form I put down Remdesivir as a drug he was allergic to. No way was I going to allow him to risk renal failure. Long story short, I threw the kitchen sink at him in terms of antivirals with monoclonals and he was back to cutting his lawn in 7 days.
