Yep. I remember those papers. They talked of the wonders of the drug, how it took someone they expected to die on the respirator to being discharged from the ICU in 3-5 days.



And yet there is another thread on this board with the conspiracy hat on insisting they are setting up the drug trail to fail by giving it only to the ones on a vent.

Which is it? Is it a miracle drug or it needs to be given to people who may not even need it to be “effective?

I haven't heard anything about it taking someone on the brink of death back to full recovery. That seems unlikely. If you give it to an at risk patient early enough, however, it has proven to work, thus far. As opposed to all the other at risk patients who are, you know, dying?
