Remdisvir for covid pneumonoa, any first hand knowledge?

First of all I know how dangerious it is. But my neighbors wife, 55yrs old, otherwise healthy developed double pneumonia after covid. She is now in the small town hospital because all larger ones are full and cant get a bed. She has been there 3 days now, o2 levels in 70s at night, oxygen on 6-9 help bring it up but they dip. Saying she is retaining fluid from steroids and showing some heart enlargements. Her daughter just said they are about to give her some anti viral drug that could shut down her kidneys (i assume remdisvir) i imagine this is last ditch effort to keep off vent. So anyway, does anyone have ANY success stories here? Longshot obv

Ivermectin for the win.
RDVR will kill her kidneys.

My grandfather had the same general issues at the hospital for double Covid pneumonia and had the remdisvir treatment. They would not give Ivermectin. We laid him to rest 01/07/2022. Hopefully it turns out better for your neighbors wife. My grandfather had 4 cormorbitities. He refused the vent which because he knew it was more than likely a death sentence.

The nurses my wife works with call it run death is near. She will die of organ failure if they give it to her..

I watched part of the testimony from Nicole Sirotek (nurse and founder of American Frontline Nurses) and I believe she said there’s less than 20% chance of a good outcome with Remdisivir. It was very low.

It’s probably too late for Remdisivir to work on Covid, it will just kill the kidneys at this point. Real early, maybe……. But haven’t had any good experiences with It TBH

Given to me when hospitalized - was no help nor no harm.
Believe the plasma loaded with covid antibodies plus a lot of prayer healed me

Remdesivir is poison

They treated my dad with it. He eventually got better, was very close to going on vent, stayed in hospital for 3 weeks. He never had any kidney trouble and is doing fine a year later. He is 79 years old.

I'm a respiratory therapist and I'm worried about that O2 sat. Is she on a nasal cannula? It sounds like she needs Bipap or Airvo/Vapotherm.
I'm not sure if this particular hospital has these kind of resources.

I went to hospital on Labor Day and stayed until the following Friday.. Covid Pneumonia.. did 4 bags of it. Didn’t know anything about it, my kidneys are fine to my knowledge so far.. guess it depends?

Sorry she’s taken a bad turn, my family member was given Remdesivir and did not survive.

Remdisvir isn't going to stop this.
She hasn't made it to bipap or vapotherm yet...she shouldn't need a vent yet.
Not being there makes it impossible to know the situation.
*edit to add. If the hospital doesn't have those things available then slap a 100% NRB on her and transport her to ANYWHERE that can. Every hospital should have those capabilities.

My dad had similar symptoms and was in hospital. He did get remdisvir. For him being a young boomer in shape and active, it kicked his arse. He’s doing much better months after though. He is a stud, o +, LEO and farms.
I know this sounds weird and they’re probably doing it but my dad felt a lot better in hospital laying on his stomach.
