Thank you for coming here and letting us ask you questions, I appreciate it. Is there anything random citizens can do to help? (Apart from socially distance, of course)

Do you think this is a manmade or naturally occurring virus?
If the idea is to avoid eventually bankrupting country paying for aging baby-boomers and future medical bills of the inevitably ill, then this is the perfect virus.

37 year old male
Works out 4 days a week
Perfect weight with 22bmi
But.... had asthma from 2-15. Not had any symptoms or flare ups since.
Will this kill me?

Could an anti-inflammatory diet along with regular exercise and exposure to sunshine/vitamin d supplements prevent a 35 year old male with asthma from dying from COVId-19?
Relax. Your asthma is irrelevant, as long as you aren't obese.

I get it. Long text, but it’s a legit question. His lay on your stomach and cough like a motherfricker would have helped me tremendously. Literally thought I was drowning, bruh.

Asthma in its own really doesn’t matter here. They said it more eloquently than that

No. Are you talking about effects on Hgb? From ER perspective, my main concern is the hypoxemia we r seening.. is it real? is O2 curve shifted so far that they can sat 50% but still oxygenate?
Do y'all alternate the pressure of O2 to let some CO2 out? Is seems that the O2 can't be absorbed if the CO2 is not leaving.

What makes this virus something to freak out about? I read today that your 6x more likely to know someone with aids than corona
Maybe currently. Nothing to freak out about unless old or obese, or chronically ill.

I’m taking this as medical advice and linking the thread to my wife.
We haven’t gotten take out in three weeks because she thinks I’ll die.

You had such a good thread going and then you have to throw it all to shite with this comment.

How would you rate your hospital on preparedness from 1-10. Why?
Did hospital staff mismanage PPE kind of like soccer moms mismanaged toilet paper at the local grocery?
